Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
338 AM HST Mon Sep 23 2024

.DISCUSSION...
Surf along north and west-facing shores will remain very small
through the day. A small to moderate size, long to medium period
northwest swell (330 degrees) is timed to arrive Tuesday from a
passing North Pacific cold front. This swell will increase mid
week north-facing shore surf to well above head high along reefs
and shorelines where northwest energy is best focused. North shore
surf is expected to remain well under the High Surf Advisory
levels. South-facing shore surf will remain small as a mix of
small, medium period southwest swells pass through the next few
days. Eastern shore waves will remain small in response to recent
light trades. An upward trend in eastern chop will occur later
today and will persist through the week in response to strengthened
trades.

Product Legend:

Surf:        Height of the surf from trough to crest (face value)
             in feet.

Tides:       Heights displayed are relative to the Mean Lower Low
             Water (MLLW) datum in feet.

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.
