Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii
National Weather Service Honolulu HI
323 PM HST Thu Nov 14 2024

.DISCUSSION...
A long-period northwest (320-330) swell will continue trending down
and shift to a more northerly direction (340-360) through Friday. Surf
heights will decrease further into the weekend and get minor bumps
from small reinforcing northwest swells. Long range models show the
potential for a larger north (360) swell by the middle through the
latter half of next week.

Rough and choppy surf along east facing shores will hold through
the weekend due to the strong trade winds. A High Surf Advisory
for exposed east facing shores is in effect through Saturday. Surf
heights should gradually decrease next week as trade wind speeds
decrease.

Surf heights along south facing shores remains small through the
period.

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.
