11/28
MONDAY...surf is reall going to crank as the next wave of swell comes firing through out of the north-northeast. a strong low pressure system to the north is currently generating winds just below hurricane strength. due to the close proximity of the storm the swell will arrive in full force and with little time to organize. strong power readings are registering to the west near buoy 1 and these will be a sign of things to come. usually the swells hitting buoy 1 are on their way here, however, the swell currently under that area is more likely swell travelling south-southwest away from the storm system generating it. given the storm's location of straight north in regards to hawaii and the swell being pumped out from the western quadrant waves are likely moving south-southwest and missing hawaii to the west. as the starm moves east-northeast over the next day it is likely that hawaii will be in a more direct path for the main swath of the swell. as of now we are on the eastern fringe of the main swell trains. tomorrow look for solid 10ft plus surf with the select outer reefs lighting up periodically. winds are looking good for the early mornings as they have no specific source and should remain light for sometime.
