DISCUSSION
EAST-FACING SHORE SURF WILL BUILD TODAY IN RESPONSE TO STRENGTHENING
TRADES. SURF ALONG EAST AND SOUTH-FACING SHORES WILL BE IMPACTED BY A
SHORT PERIOD EAST SOUTHEAST SWELL GENERATED BY TROPICAL STORM MOKE AS
WELL AS NORTHEAST WIND WAVE SWELL AS A RESULT OF THESE STRONGER
TRADES. AS MOKE PASSES BY TO THE SOUTH THROUGH MONDAY, THE SOUTHEAST
SWELL WILL VEER AND BECOME SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST. THIS SMALL, SHORT
PERIOD CAPTURED EAST FETCH FROM MOKE MAY PUSH BIG ISLAND EAST SURF TO
NEAR ADVISORY LEVELS LATER TODAY.
SURF ALONG MOST SOUTH-FACING SHORES WILL BE SLIGHTLY BELOW SUMMER
NORMS BUT STILL REMAIN SOMEWHAT ELEVATED DUE TO A LINGERING SMALL,
LONG PERIOD SOUTH SOUTHWEST SWELL. A THREE TO FOUR FOOT, MEDIUM TO
LONG PERIOD SOUTH SWELL IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE MONDAY AND TUESDAY
WHICH WILL MAINTAIN THESE NEAR SUMMERTIME HEIGHTS.
SMALL, MEDIUM TO LONG PERIOD WEST TO NORTH SWELL ORIGINATING FROM
HURRICANE LALA IS PASSING AROUND NORTH AND WEST-FACING COASTS
TODAY.
