.DISCUSSION...
A moderate, short-medium period, north-northwest to north swell
arrived overnight and will produce elevated surf along north facing
shores as it continues to fill in through the day today. We are
expecting near borderline advisory level surf along north facing
shores today. Will continue to monitor to see if a High Surf Advisory
(HSA) is needed later this morning, as this swell energy is continuing
to rise at the Waimea buoy.
A larger moderate period north to north-northeast (010-030 degree)
swell will fill in tonight into Monday which should exceed advisory
thresholds along north and east facing shores. Due to the northerly
direction, areas such as west Maui will also see elevated surf as well
as some of the exposed areas of west Big Island near Kua Bay. Another
reinforcing northeast swell is expected towards the middle of the
week as a gale force low develops northeast of the state on Monday.
A small, long period, south-southwest swell will keep surf heights
near seasonal averages along south facing shores today. Then a pair
of south to south-southwest swells should bring above average surf
throughout the first half of the 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.
