840 AM HST SUN JAN 11 2026
DISCUSSION
A HIGH SURF ADVISORY (HSA) IS IN EFFECT THROUGH MONDAY MORNING FOR
NORTH AND WEST FACING SHORES EXPOSED TO THE LARGE NORTHWEST SWELL
ENERGY. THIS SWELL WILL HOLD ABOVE HSA THRESHOLDS INTO MONDAY AS
ANOTHER MUCH LARGER OVERLAPPING NORTHWEST SWELL SWIFTLY BUILDS SURF TO
HIGH SURF WARNING (HSW) LEVELS FROM MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY. WE WILL
LIKELY ISSUE AN HSW ON MONDAY TO COVER THIS NEXT WARNING LEVEL SURF
EVENT. YET ANOTHER XL NORTHWEST (320-330 DEGREE) SWELL WILL BUILD INTO
THE REGION BY THURSDAY, POTENTIALLY PRODUCING ANOTHER ROUND OF
WARNING LEVEL SURF ALONG NORTH AND WEST FACING SHORES LASTING THROUGH
FRIDAY. THIS NORTHWEST SWELL ENERGY WILL DIMINISH INTO NEXT WEEKEND.
SURF ALONG EAST FACING SHORES WILL REMAIN SMALL THROUGH THE FIRST
HALF OF THIS WEEK DUE TO A CONTINUED DISRUPTION IN THE TRADE WIND
FLOW. SURF HEIGHTS WILL REMAIN VERY SMALL ALONG SOUTH FACING
SHORES THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD.
