Swell Summary
Large easterly wind waves and a diminishing northeast (040 deg) swell continue to produce advisory level surf along east facing shores this morning. Although the northeast swell will gradually ease over the next 24 hours and wind waves will also slowly decrease as wind speeds ease, advisory level surf will linger through this afternoon for east facing shores. Therefore, the High Surf Advisory (HSA) remains in effect until 6pm HST this evening. Surf is expected to drop below HSA threshold by tonight. Small to moderate surf along north and west facing shores will continue to slowly decline as a northwest (310 deg) swell continues to diminish.
Models show that another significant northwest swell will move into the region Friday into the weekend. Surf could approach near advisory levels for exposed north and west facing shores on Friday.
