Oahu Surf Zone Forecast FZHW52 PHFO 041357 SRFHFO Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii National Weather Service Honolulu HI 357 AM HST Sun Dec 4 2022 .DISCUSSION... The current medium-period northeast swell is expected to gradually lower from later today and tonight through Monday. This swell will maintain elevated surf along most exposed east facing shores today, especially the Big Island and Maui. A new large, medium-period northwest swell associated with a low pressure system, which is expected to develop northwest of Kauai from late tonight through Monday, is forecast to arrive early Tuesday morning. This swell will likely cause surf to be well above the High Surf Advisory thresholds along most north and west facing shores starting Tuesday. This swell will gradually lower from Wednesday through Thursday.

Tides: Heights displayed are relative to the Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) datum in feet. Surf heights can vary significantly from beach to beach along a coastline. Surf larger than the upper end of the range provided in the forecast will occur periodically, sometimes up to a few hours apart. Expect to encounter rip currents in or near the surf zone, with rip current strength increasing with surf size. Swimmers are urged to exercise caution at all times and enter the water near a lifeguard.
