Swell Summary
A large west-northwest swell peaked last night and will gradually lower tonight and Sunday. Buoy observations support downgrading the High Surf Warning to a High Surf Advisory for exposed north and west facing shores from Kauai to Maui, while the advisory for west facing shores of the Big Island will be extended through tonight. Surf on all islands will decline below advisory thresholds by Sunday morning. Small to moderate north-northwest to northwest swells will prevail through the remainder of the week.
Large and very rough seas will develop on Sunday as trade winds strengthen. East shore surf should rise above the High Surf Advisory threshold Sunday night, with the potential for surf to reach the warning level Monday and Tuesday on Kauai and Oahu. Large east shore surf will slowly decline Tuesday into Wednesday but will still remain somewhat elevated through the remainder of the week. Surf along south facing shores will remain small with some small background south-southwest energy expected throughout the first half of next week. Select southern exposures exposed to the wind swell will likely see some larger waves as well.
