surf zone forecast for hawaii

.discussion...
high surf warning is in effect as the largest nw swell
of the winter season rapidly moves down the island chain, with peak
surf heights of 40 to 50 feet (with locally higher waves) along
exposed shores tonight and into tomorrow. pacioos waimea buoy swell
heights and period have been on the rise all day and currently at 16
feet 18 seconds. offshore ndbc 51001/51101 buoys have started to show
a slow decline in swell height which are now running in the 18 feet 17
second range. the swell may have peak already for kauai. the swell is
still anticipated to peak late this afternoon to early evening for
oahu, and in the evening for maui. a high surf advisory remains in
effect for exposed n and w facing shores of the big island as the
swell is expected to peak locally overnight. the swell will gradually
diminish from nw to se tonight through sunday night, but a new nw
swell arriving monday will likely push surf to warning levels once
again, with peak surf heights lower than today's swell.
