Marine

Benign sea conditions remained today throughout the American Samoa coastal waters. The PacIOOS buoy to the east of Aunu'u shows waves around 6 feet with northerly swell and less than this at the buoy to the west of Tutuila.

Conditions are forecast to change beginning Sunday. A moderate east/southeasterly breeze is expected to become fresh throughout the day and remain for the majority of the week. Seas are to build throughout the week and may reach up to 13 feet by Tuesday night and Wednesday. Winds may decrease slightly for the rest of the week, but seas are to remain rough.

Expect Small Craft Advisory conditions beginning Sunday and to remain for the rest of the week. With waves possibly reaching up to 13 feet, a High Surf Advisory is likely from early to at least mid-week.
