South Shore Oahu Forecast
Kevin Wallis •Today
Good mix of overlapping southerly swells continues - overhead at the better breaks & clean.
Dawn-10am: Mix of older, mid period S swell that will be fading and new, very long period energy out of the SSW building slowly. Good size on local buoys and surf height close to Tuesday with shoulder-head high+ surf at the decent spots and sets running 1-2' overhead at times at standout breaks.
