Surf along south facing shores will increase throughout the day today and hold tomorrow as a small, long period south southwest swell will fills in. The largest sets could reach high surf advisory thresholds, however the majority of the surf should stay just below it, so an advisory is not expected. The swell will gradually fade through the weekend. Then another similar sized south swell is expected by the middle to the later half of next week.
Surf along east facing shores will remain rough and choppy due to persistent trade wind swell. A small, medium period east swell from Tropical Storm Iselle may fill in Friday, peak Saturday before slowly fading into early next week.
Surf along north facing shores will remain tiny to flat.
Small Craft Advisory until 6 AM HST Friday for Alenuihaha Channel-Big Island Leeward Waters-Big Island Southeast Waters- Maalaea Bay-Pailolo Channel.
