Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
318 PM HST Tue Jan 14 2025
.DISCUSSION...The current moderate long-period northwest swell
peaked this morning and is on the decline. Latest surf obs and
buoy reports indicate both the surf and combined seas have dropped
below advisory levels and will continue to lower over the next
couple of days. A large long-period northwest swell is expected
to build Friday into Saturday with warning-level surf possible. A
medium- period northwest swell is forecast to fill in during the
first half of next week, keeping surf heights elevated over the
remainder of the forecast period.
Surf along south facing shores will remain very small through
Wednesday. A moderate long-period south swell is expected to fill
in Thursday, peak Friday near advisory levels, then slowly ease
over the weekend. Surf long east facing shores will slowly decline
through the end of the week. A small north swell could potentially
elevate surf along exposed shorelines Wednesday and Thursday.
