Swell Summary
Surf along exposed north and west facing shores is rising quickly this morning as a large north-northwest (330 deg) swell builds down the island chain. The surf will peak through the day at warning levels, then lower to advisory levels tonight through Wednesday. The downward trend will continue through Thursday with a mix of a small northwest and north swell moving through. An upward trend is expected late Friday as a fresh north-northwest swell arrives. Surf along exposed north and west facing shores may reach the advisory levels as it peaks over the weekend. Surf along east facing shores will remain rough through midweek due to the strong trades, then ease through the second half as the winds diminish. Some easterly shores exposed to northerly swells will remain up through the week.
