.DISCUSSION...
The current northwest swell will maintain surf at moderate levels
along north and west facing shores through the morning hours. A
new northwest swell is expected to build later this afternoon and
peak tonight into Sunday, then decline through early next week.
Long period forerunners have started to reach the offshore NDBC
buoy 51101. A High Surf Advisory (HSA) has been issued for select
north and west facing shores starting at noon today through Sunday
afternoon. A potentially larger northwest swell is expected
around the middle of next week. Stay tuned for more details as the
low continues to develop to the far northwest of the islands.
As trade winds slowly weaken, choppy surf along east facing
shores will decline into early next week. Surf looks to remain
tiny to small through the forecast period with tiny background
southerly energy.

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.
