Aloha, wave riders! Get ready for an epic surf forecast across the Hawaiian Islands.
A northwest swell is rolling in, bringing some sweet action to north and west facing shores. Today's waves are looking juicy, with Kauai and Oahu seeing north facing shores pumping 6-8 feet in the morning and potentially reaching 7-10 feet by afternoon. Maui's looking at a solid 4-6 rising to 6-8 feet.
The trade winds are cranking hard - expect east winds around 15 to 20 mph creating some choppy conditions. These strong winds will keep east facing shores rough but consistently in the 3-5 foot range across all islands.
South shore surfers might want to temper expectations - waves will remain small and mostly background level through Thursday. But hang tight - a series of overlapping south swells could bring some seasonal excitement Friday through the weekend.
Looking ahead, a new moderate north-northwest swell is brewing for Thursday night and Friday. This could potentially trigger surf advisories for north and west facing shores, so stay tuned.
Weather-wise, expect partly sunny skies with scattered showers and temperatures in the lower 80s. UV index is extreme, so sunscreen is your best friend.
Pro tip for all you ocean lovers - always check local beach conditions and swim near lifeguards. Rip currents can be sneaky, so stay alert and stay stoked!
Catch you on the waves, Hawaii!
