A high surf advisory has been posted for north-facing shores of the Big Island through 7 p.m. tonight, the National Weather Service reports.
Twelve- to 15-foot waves are forecast along north-facing shores of the island’s northern and eastern coasts, forecasters said. Surf heights are expected to drop below advisory level tonight, however, a reinforcing northwest swell is expected to arrive late Tuesday that could once again bring advisory level surf to exposed shores.
An even larger northwest swell is possible for the next weekend, which could bring surf to warning levels, forecasters said.
