Swell Summary
Surf along north and west facing shores will remain small this evening, but gradually build overnight due to a growing medium period north northwest swell (330-350). This swell is expected to produce advisory or near advisory level surf Friday and Friday night. On Saturday, a large to extra large, long period swell (350-360) will quickly build in and produce warning level surf along north facing shores with advisory level surf across west and east facing shores that will continue through the weekend.
Surf along south facing shores will remain tiny into the weekend with mainly background energy dominating. A small, long period south swell could fill in later over the weekend into early next week and provide a small boost to surf along south facing shores.
Surf along east facing shores will gradually build Friday and Saturday with the return of trade wind flow over and upstream of the state and also from the larger northerly swells wrapping into exposed areas.
Moderate to locally strong trade winds will become fully reestablished over the Islands by Saturday afternoon and continue into the coming week.
