Surfline, official forecasters for the Vans Triple Crown have delivered the updated surf forecast for the remainder of the Reef Hawaiian Pro.

SWELL/SURF OUTLOOK
Unfortunately, only traces of North-NW swells will lap into Haleiwa through the workweek (18th-22nd).
Over the next few days or so, we’ll be watching the progress of an area of low pressure that is forecast to develop over the central North Pacific. This system may potentially deliver a fun size mid period NW swell (320-335°) that will build in on Saturday the 23rd and peak at night. At this time, we will continue to stay on the conservative side with this, as its still a few days out from even developing. However, recent model runs are looking better for this event to occur. If this storm continues to behave as forecast; surf for Haleiwa will start out around the knee-waist high zone on Saturday morning, then gradually increasing to chest-head high+ by the late afternoon. Keep in mind this is still pending development, therefore still subject to change.
WIND/WEATHER
An approaching front will bring a rise of southerly wind over Wed/Thurs, before passing through the Islands over Friday the 22nd with light/variable clocking wind. Then high pressure builds in behind the passing trough for the weekend of the 23rd-24th with light to moderate ENE Trades.
