Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii

.DISCUSSION...
A mix of a small medium-period northwest swell and a small short to
medium period north northeast swell will maintain small surf along
north facing shores today, fading into Sunday morning. The smaller
forerunners of a moderate to large long period northwest swell will
build into Hawaiian waters starting Sunday afternoon. This swell
energy will build to High Surf Advisory (HSA) levels by Monday, then
likely hold through Tuesday before slowly falling below HSA thresholds
from Wednesday onward. Predicting slightly higher swell heights than
the latest swell model guidance indicates, as recent swell model
forecasts were too low as compared to nearshore ground truth buoy
observations.
Surf along south facing shores will remain small through the
weekend with a series of background south and southwest swells
through early next week. East facing shores will remain small as a
small, medium period easterly swell, originating from Tropical
Cyclone Priscilla in the East Pacific, will build into the
islands starting later this afternoon and lasting into Sunday.

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.
