New NW Swell This Weekend, Strong Trades - Hawaii

Surf heights will remain below advisory thresholds for all shores through the forecast period. Offshore buoys are showing signs of the new medium period northwest swell filling in. Can expect surf to rise locally by the early morning hours and through the afternoon Thursday, peaking Thursday night. Another small, medium period northwest pulse will enter the waters Friday night, peak Saturday, and subside Sunday. Expect these swells to produce small surf along north and northwest facing beaches. Persistent trades will continue to produce choppy, rough surf through the rest of the week along east facing beaches. By this weekend, weakening trades will allow this surf to lower and hold into early next week.  - NOAA
