Swell Summary
The current moderate, long period, northwest swell (320 degrees) continues to subside this afternoon, with the Waimea Bay buoy currently around 6 ft at 13 seconds. This swell will continue to decline through tonight so the High Surf Advisory (HSA) along north and exposed west facing shores from Kauai to Maui has been cancelled. North shore surf will be well below seasonal average on Monday and Tuesday. A potentially larger northwest swell is expected to arrive Wednesday and peak into Thursday. If current guidance holds a HSA will be needed during this time, with warning level surf possible. This swell will decline Friday and Saturday, though there are high odds for a larger west-northwest swell later this weekend.
As trade winds weaken over the next couple of days, surf along east facing shores will decline and will be well below seasonal average through much the week. South shore surf will be tiny through the week.
