Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
332 PM HST Thu Nov 21 2024

.DISCUSSION...Swell out of the NW quadrant remains small through
Friday. Medium period, moderate NW (310-320) swell then builds during
Saturday and is forecast to peak shy of High Surf Advisory (HSA)
criteria on Sunday before subsiding early next week. Overlapping with
this NW swell will be a series of medium period small to moderate
pulses out of the NNE (010-030) associated with the strong storm off
the US Pacific Northwest coast, the first of which begins building
into area waters tonight. This swell is likewise forecast to peak shy
of HSA criteria for N facing shores, though marginal HSA potential
will be worth monitoring for susceptible NE facing exposures Saturday
through Sunday. Short period fresh trade wind swell and wind waves
subside in concert with weakening trades.

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.
