National Weather Service forecasters in Honolulu have extended a high surf advisory for Hawaii Island’s west-facing shores through 6 p.m. Sunday.
The service forecast waves ranging in height from 4 to 8 feet along west-facing shores through tonight. Wave heights are expected to increase in height from 6 to 10 feet on Sunday because of another large northwest swell headed toward the islands.
The service categorized the surf’s impact as “moderate” and advise the public to expect strong breaking waves and strong rip currents that can make swimming dangerous and heed all advice given by ocean safety officials.
