A high surf advisory has remains in effect for the Big Island’s east-facing shores.
The National Weather Service in Honolulu forecast wave heights between 6 and 8 feet along east-facing shores of the Big Island’s northern and eastern coasts. The advisory remains in effect until 6 p.m. Sunday.
The service categorized the surf’s impact as “moderate,” noting that the public should expect strong breaking waves, shore break and strong longshore and rip currents that can make swimming difficult and dangerous.
