Swell Summary
Long period south swell energy will continue filling in today, keeping surf elevated but just below advisory levels this afternoon. By Wednesday, this swell will begin to fade, but surf heights will change little this week, as a mix of new, small south swells will keep surf elevated near or just above seasonal norms. Another long period swell then looks to fill in this weekend, bumping surf back up to just below advisory levels.
A long-period northwest swell will continue building today, pushing surf for north-facing shores up tonight to near moderate levels on Wednesday. Small to moderate surf is then forecast through the rest of the week even as swell energy becomes shorter period, since it will be reinforced by a low to the north- northwest of the Hawaiian Islands. A larger moderate swell could arrive early next week, bringing north shore surf to just below advisory thresholds. Surf along east facing shores will remain small as local winds remain fairly weak.
A small, long-period west swell originating from Typhoon Choi-wan is forecast to reach the islands Thursday into the weekend, which may produce moderate surf for west-facing shores.
