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

.DISCUSSION...
A reinforcing medium period NW to NNW swell should build in later
today, peak tonight into early Saturday, then gradually decline over
the weekend. A moderate NW swell is expected to fill in on Monday and
will likely peak near advisory levels late Monday and will be followed
by a slightly larger NW swell on Wednesday, which should produce
advisory level surf for N and W facing shores next week Wednesday.

Surf along east-facing shores will remain rough and choppy through
the middle of next week due to the breezy trade winds. Long range
models are showing a significant increase of windswell towards the end
of next week due a large fetch of strong trade winds setting up over
and upstream of the state. Surf could reach warning levels along east
facing shores towards the end of next week.

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.
