morning to near High Surf Advisory levels as a new north- northwest
swell enters the waters. Surf heights should remain elevated through
late this week and into the weekend as another similar sized northwest
swell pushes through.

Rough surf will continue along east facing shores over the next
several days in response to the persistent strong trade winds
over and upstream of the islands. Surf will near High Surf
Advisory criteria later today and into Wednesday morning as trades
peak in strength.

Surf along south- facing shores will remain small.

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.
