Swell Summary
A northwest swell will continue to fade tonight. A new long period northwest swell is forecast to build early Thursday and bring moderate surf to north and west facing shores Thursday into Friday. Surf heights should remain slightly below advisory levels. This swell will gradually decline over the weekend into early next week.
A small, long-period south swell will fill in tonight and likely provide a small bump in south shore surf through the end of the week.
Surf along east facing shores will remain below normal during the next several days due to the lack of strong trades over and upstream of the islands. East shore surf will gradually increase into the weekend as trades slowly make a return.
