National Weather Service Honolulu HI

.Synopsis for Hawaiian coastal waters...
 Ridging centered northeast of Hawaii will maintain a tight
pressure gradient back toward the islands. This will continue to
produce moderate to locally strong trade winds over the majority
of the coastal waters through early Sunday. Short period
northeast swell, combined with a fading medium period northwest
swell, will result in rough east seas through the day. Gradually
weakening trade winds and responding lowering seas will occur
from tonight through the middle of next week.
