Oahu Surf Zone Forecast FZHW52 PHFO 191345 SRFHFO Surf Zone Forecast National Weather Service Honolulu HI 345 AM HST Mon Aug 19 2019 Oahu- 345 AM HST Mon Aug 19 2019 Surf along south facing shores will rise to 4 to 6 feet by this evening, then will increase to 8 to 12 feet late tonight, and 10 to 14 feet Tuesday. Surf along west facing shores will rise to 3 to 5 feet by this evening, then will increase to 6 to 10 feet late tonight, and 8 to 12 feet Tuesday. Surf along east facing shores will be to 1 to 3 feet through Tuesday. Surf along north facing shores will be 1 to 3 feet through Tuesday. Outlook through Monday August 26: A new large, long-period south-southwest swell may cause surf to approach the High Surf Warning criteria along south facing shores by late tonight or Tuesday. This swell is expected to keep surf above the High Surf Advisory threshold from Wednesday into Thursday. There may be a slight increase in small, choppy surf along east facing shores later this week as the trade winds strengthen. Small northwest swells may cause a slight increase in surf along north and west facing shores from late Wednesday through Friday Surf heights are forecast heights of the face, or front, of waves. The surf forecast is based on the significant wave height, the average height of the one third largest waves, at the locations of the largest breakers. Some waves may be more than twice as high as the significant wave height. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near any surf zone.
