...HIGH SURF ADVISORY FOR SOUTH FACING SHORES THROUGH SATURDAY...
.A long-period south-southwest swell continues to produce advisory level surf along south-facing shores this afternoon. The swell declines tonight, which may cause surf to briefly fall below advisory levels late tonight or early on Saturday. Then, a reinforcing pulse of long- period south-southwest energy arrives, which is expected to bring surf back to advisory level by Saturday afternoon and possibly continuing through the weekend.
* WHAT...Large breaking waves of 7 to 10 feet.
* WHERE...South facing shores of all Hawaiian Islands.
* WHEN...Until 6 PM HST Saturday.
* IMPACTS...Moderate. Strong breaking waves and strong currents will make swimming dangerous.
