Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii...CORRECTED

.DISCUSSION...Strong trades near and upstream of the islands will
produce large and rough surf along north and east shores today. The
primary swell direction will shift from north northeast (020-030) to
the northeast (030-050) by this evening. This will allow north shore
surf to decline, but large surf will persist along east facing shores
through at least Wednesday night. The advisory may need to be upgraded
to a warning during the peak of the event on Wednesday, as surf
heights approach warning criteria of 15 ft. Northeast swell energy
lowers on Thursday as local trade winds begin to decline, with east
shore surf steadily dropping Friday through the weekend.
A pulse of long period south swell energy has arrived and is forecast
to peak late today into Wednesday, then begin to fade by Thursday.
This late season energy should help bump surf up to near or slightly
above the November average. South shore surf returns to near flat
Friday into this weekend.

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.
