.A large north swell will build tonight into Thanksgiving Day.
This swell will produce High to XL size surf along the north-
facing shores of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai and Maui through
Thanksgiving night. West-facing shores exposed to large north
swell will also experience a significant rise in surf from north
wrap. The swell coincides with strong to gale force northeast
winds, as well as a spring high tide during early Thursday and
Friday mornings. This will likely result in significant overwash
issues within a large wave run up along north-facing shorelines.

shores of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu and Molokai.

will make swimming dangerous.
