.DISCUSSION...
Nearshore windward buoys are observing a 4 to 5 foot trade wind swell
that will further decline throughout the remainder of the week as a
result of light trades.
A series of northwest and north-northeast swells are due within a
couple of days. A tiny 1 to 2 foot, 15 second period northwest (320
degree) swell is being observed at the nearshore CDIP buoys as it
moves around the islands early this morning. This swell will level out
around 2 feet today and then hang in through Friday. A larger 3 to 6
foot northwest (310-320 degree) medium period swell developing from a
pair of lows far northwest of the islands is scheduled to travel
through this weekend and peak Sunday. A smaller reinforcing northwest
pulse (320 degree) is due Monday and Tuesday.
A small, short to medium period north (010-020 degree) swell will
slowly build in today and hold at 4 to 5 feet Friday and Saturday.
A very large, powerful storm force low churning off the U.S.
Pacific Northwest coast will send an overlapping north-northeast
(010-030 degree) swell across the islands late tonight or early
Friday, peaking Sunday into Monday and then fading Tuesday.

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.
