.DISCUSSION...
The moderate, short to medium period west to southwest swell
originating from Nolo will continue for Niihau and Kauai through
Friday night. Additionally, a small background south swell
continues for other islands. The next small, long period south
swell energy will arrive either late Sunday or Monday.
Surf along other shores will remain small until moderate trades
return late this weekend, providing a slight boost to east facing
shores. Multiple rounds of tiny northwest swell energy will reach
north and west facing shores this weekend into early next week as
the storms tracking near the Aleutian Islands become increasingly
active.

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
