Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
402 AM HST Fri Nov 8 2024

.DISCUSSION...

The current medium period NW (310-330) swell will gradually
decline over the next couple days, but a new reinforcing moderate
long period NW (320-340) swell will build in today, peak on
Saturday, then gradually diminish as well. Surf along north and
west facing shores will thus remain elevated through most of the
weekend.

The first half of next week will then feature a moderate long
period NW (320) swell that will peak Monday into Monday night only
to be quickly followed by a borderline large NW (320) long period
swell the forerunners of which should begin arriving late
Tuesday. This latter swell will likely elevate surf to the High
Surf Advisory threshold for N and W facing shores on Wednesday.

Surf along east-facing shores will remain elevated and choppy
through the middle of next week due to the strong trade winds.

Surf along south-facing shores will remain small and near the
seasonal average through the middle of next week.

Product Legend:

Surf:        Height of the surf from trough to crest (face value)
             in feet.

Tides:       Heights displayed are relative to the Mean Lower Low
             Water (MLLW) datum in feet.

Surf heights can vary significantly from beach to beach along a
coastline. Surf larger than the upper end of the range provided in
the forecast will occur periodically, sometimes up to a few hours
apart. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near the surf zone,
with rip current strength increasing with surf size. Swimmers are
urged to exercise caution at all times and enter the water near a
lifeguard.
