FZHW52 PHFO 160501 SRFHFO Surf Zone Forecast for Hawaii National Weather Service Honolulu HI 701 PM HST Wed Apr 15 2026 .DISCUSSION... A small, short-period, NNW swell will fade out on Thursday. Small background energy from the west will be possible this weekend into early next week from Typhoon Sinlaku, but confidence remains low. A much larger northwest to west-northwest swell is possible towards the end of next week as Typhoon Sinlaku makes an extratropical transition early next week. A small to moderate, medium-period, SSE swell will boost surf along S shores through Friday then lower over the weekend. Surf along E shores remains below the seasonal average as trades remain light. However, increasing trades by week's end should brings a slight bump to surf. Low pressure advancing S along the W coast of the US next week sends a small, medium period NE swell toward the islands by midweek.
