903 PM HST THU APR 9 2026
DISCUSSION
THE CURRENT SOUTH SWELL THAT PEAKED YESTERDAY WILL SLOWLY DECLINE
THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK. MEANWHILE, STRONG TO GALE FORCE
SOUTHERLY WINDS THAT ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP TONIGHT OVER THE WESTERN
HALF OF THE STATE WILL PRODUCE LARGE, DISORGANIZED SURF ALONG SOUTH
FACING SHORES OF KAUAI AND OAHU.
ALONG NORTH FACING SHORES, THE CURRENT MID PERIOD NORTHWEST (320
DEGREE) SWELL WILL STEADILY LOWER TONIGHT AND DISSIPATE TO BACKGROUND
LEVELS ON FRIDAY. HOWEVER A SMALLER SHORT-PERIOD NORTHWEST SWELL
GENERATED BY THE LOW DEVELOPING JUST WEST OF US WILL FILL IN FRIDAY
NIGHT THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.
SURF ALONG EAST FACING SHORES COULD SEE AN INCREASE LATER THIS
WEEK DUE TO THE STRENGTHENING SOUTHEASTERLY WINDS ESPECIALLY FOR
SOUTHEAST EXPOSURES.
