A series of northwest to north-northwest swells will continue to move across local waters through early next week. The latest swell will slowly decline this afternoon through at least mid Friday as it shifts out of the north-northwest (340 degrees). Another, similarly- sized or slightly smaller north-northwest swell (330-340 degrees) will reach the islands late Friday afternoon or evening and push north and west shore surf close to high surf advisory levels during the peak early Saturday. This swell will decline Saturday night into early Monday, followed by a smaller pulse of swell on Monday. As this swell drops, there are low chances for a quick shot of medium-period north swell sometime Tuesday and Wednesday.
Rough trade wind seas and resulting east shore surf will gradually increase Friday and Saturday, then decline as trades over and upwind of the state ease Sunday and Monday. As a fetch of trades expands east of the islands Friday and Saturday, wind wave energy will increase, and surf along east facing shores will climb to just below the advisory threshold. East shore surf will decline Sunday into Monday as trades ease across the region, with some chance of wrapping north swell Tuesday and Wednesday.
South facing shores will experience mainly small background swell through the week.
