Happy Aloha Friday to all!
The surf dropped some more - 1 - 2 occasional 2 1/2 feet and very windy. We still went out and caught some good waves. Doesn't look good for the weekend - small and windy. I'm not surfing tomorrow, I have to take Dawn to the dentist early in the morning. Even if it's good tomorrow - please don't tell me - I don't want to hear it. Ha-ha-ha!

SPAC SYNOPSIS: After a previous flurry of good swells on the South Shores, the storms in the South Pacific have slowed down now and we see a more zonal wind pattern lately. Old Southern Hemi swell fades into the weekend as some background smaller SW swell blends in. Next week starts off slow then some new SSW swell moves in for the middle and second half of the upcoming week.
S groundswell (180-190) is dropping off quickly today and by Saturday waves will go back down into the knee-waist zone and a few leftover chest high sets show at top spots. Expect progressively smaller surf Sunday into Monday with most waves below waist high, although conditions do look to remain clean with modest trades.
The remaining storms stirring in the Southern Hemi are primarily aimed to the East of Hawaii and therefore are not focused towards the islands. This will lead to inconsistent surf as the next SSW energy (185-200) starts up next Tuesday and lasts into Friday, 27th. As of right now, it looks like a run of knee-waist-chest surf with occasional bigger sets at the best exposures, but again those waves will deal with decent lulls.
As those waves fade into the following weekend, we could see a slightly better, but still shadowed, SW swell from the Tasman Sea around the 30th. We'll keep you posted on the progress.
