level surf appears likely with this swell along west facing
shores of the Big Island Thursday night through Friday night as
well. This swell will decline Friday night and Saturday, with a
reinforcing northwest swell building Saturday night, keeping some
moderate sized surf in place along north and west facing shores
through early next week.
Small surf will persist along south facing shores through
Saturday, with a slight boost possible Sunday through early next
week. East shore surf will trend down during the next couple days,
then remain well below normal through early next week.
