NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HONOLULU HI
910 AM HST TUE SEP 1 2026
DISCUSSION
A MODERATE, LONG-PERIOD SOUTH SWELL ARRIVES TODAY. THIS SWELL WILL
BUILD THROUGH THE DAY AND OVERNIGHT BEFORE PEAKING ON WEDNESDAY,
BRINGING SURF HEIGHTS TO JUST BELOW ADVISORY THRESHOLDS. THIS SWELL
WILL THEN GRADUALLY DECLINE THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK. ALSO BY
WEDNESDAY, MEDIUM-PERIOD ENERGY FROM LOWELL COULD START FILLING IN
ACROSS SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST SHORES. SOUTH SHORE SURF WILL REMAIN
ELEVATED, NEAR TO JUST BELOW ADVISORY LEVELS THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY.
BEYOND THAT POINT, THE SURF FORECAST IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON THE
EVENTUAL TRACK AND INTENSITY OF LOWELL, WHICH HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE
A SIGNIFICANT SOURCE OF SOUTH TO SOUTHWESTERLY SWELL THROUGH THIS
WEEKEND AND INTO NEXT WEEK.
TRADE WIND SWELL ENERGY WILL KEEP ROUGH, CHOPPY SURF ALONG ALL EAST-
FACING SHORES THROUGH THE COMING WEEK. TONIGHT, A SMALL, MEDIUM-
PERIOD EAST SWELL ARRIVES FROM HURRICANE KARINA THAT WILL BUILD
THROUGH THE WEEK AND COULD PUSH EAST SHORE SURF TO ADVISORY THRESHOLDS
BY THIS WEEKEND AND INTO NEXT WEEK.
