## extract

High Surf Advisory — Kosrae
Severity: Minor. Certainty: Likely.
* WHAT...Large breaking waves of 6 to 8 feet.

* WHERE...South facing reefs of Kosrae.

* WHEN...Until 3 AM ChST Thursday.

* IMPACTS...Dangerous swimming and surfing conditions and
localized beach erosion.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Strong southeast trades and a circulation
south of the equator continue to generate south to southeast
swell into eastern Micronesia. As the circulation meanders
towards the Solomon Islands, swell turns more southwest late week
and over the weekend. For now, hazardous surf up to 8 feet is
expected along south facing reefs through early Thursday morning,
possibly seeing another boost in surf heights over the weekend.
