High-surf warning remains for north, west shores

Advertiser Staff

A high-surf advisory remains in effect for all north- and west-facing shores on O'ahu.

Surf along north-facing shores was 15 feet to 20 feet during the night, but is expected to lower to heights of 10 feet to 14 feet today.

Surf along west-facing shores was 10 feet to 15 feet overnight, and is expected to lower to heights of 6 feet to 10 feet today.

Surf along east-facing shores will be 2 feet to 4 feet with locally higher sets through today.

Surf along south-facing shores will be 2 feet to 4 feet through today.

The longer term outlook through Tuesday calls for the current northwest swell to continue to lower on Friday. A new advisory-level northwest swell is expected to arrive Saturday night, peak late Sunday, then slowly lower through Tuesday.

No other significant swells are expected.
