Swell Summary
Updated this afternoon due to nearshore eastern buoys rising quickly. The current long- period south swell will continue to bring moderate to large surf through tonight before slowly declining Monday into Tuesday. Currently east facing shores due to the locally strong trade winds will continue to support rough choppy surf. Currently, long period forerunners from the east have already started to build across east facing shores of all islands this afternoon. Energy from Hurricane Fausto is expected to build and potentially reach High Surf Warning levels by Monday night through early Wednesday. After a brief lull late Wednesday through Thursday, east shore surf will trend back up Friday into the weekend due to a combination of rising trade wind swell and a new long period east swell associated with Tropical Storm Genevieve moving in.
Surf along north shores remains flat to tiny today. Some increase is expected as Fausto or its remnants pass near the region Tuesday and Wednesday, with north shore surf returning to typical flat to tiny levels late Wednesday into the weekend.
