Swell Summary
Swells from Hurricane Lowell will steadily fill in across rest of the island chain tonight into Thursday and will likely produce advisory level surf for south and southeast exposures throughout the state. Swells from Lowell will likely linger through next week and will gradually veer from southeast to south tonight through Thursday and eventually towards the southwest early next week. While, the forecast for swells and seas for next week will highly depend on the eventual track and intensity of Lowell, confidence is beginning to increase for the potential of extra-large surf (exceeding warning levels) along south and western exposures early next week. Additionally, the current moderate long period south swell will peak tonight then gradually decline through the rest of the week.
A large, medium-period east swell from Hurricane Karina will steadily fill in Friday into the weekend and will likely produce high end advisory level surf or warning level surf along east facing shores by this weekend.
