National Weather Service Honolulu HI
322 AM HST Sun May 19 2024

.DISCUSSION...
A pair of overlapping south swell will keep south shore surf near
low end advisory levels today. The swell will hold near or just
below advisory levels tonight and Monday, then gradually lower
through the middle of the week. South shore surf will fall back
below the summertime average Thursday through next weekend, with
only small south and south-southwest swells rolling through.

The current very small northwest swell will gradually lower
through Monday, with north shore surf going flat Tuesday through
next weekend.

Surf along east facing shores will remain well below average
through early next week. An upward trend is expected Tuesday
through next weekend as trade winds strengthen over and upstream
of the islands.

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.
