.DISCUSSION...The current moderate, long period, northwest swell
(310-320) peaked last night and will slowly lower through the day
today. A High Surf Advisory (HSA) will remain in effect along north
and exposed west facing shores from Kauai to Maui through 6pm this
evening. Monday into Tuesday, north shore surf will drop below the
seasonal average. Another long period, potentially larger northwest
swell, is expected to arrive Wednesday and peak into Thanksgiving day
which could bring high end advisory or possibly warning level surf.
This swell will slowly decline Friday into the weekend.
As trade winds weaken over the next couple of days, surf along
east facing shores will decline and will be well below seasonal
average through much the week. South shore surf will be tiny
through much of the week.

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.
