The National Weather Service of Honolulu, meanwhile, expects typical summertime weather to dominate through the week, with moderate to locally breezy trades.
A high-surf advisory remains in place for all south-facing shores as a large, south swell that peaked on Sunday continues easing. Heights should fall below the advisory level tonight, with the advisory expiring at 6 p.m.
Forecasters said a small, long-period east swell from Estelle may provide a slight boost to surf along east-facing shores late this week into the weekend.
Otherwise, no other significant swells are expected.
