High Surf in Central Oahu, Hawaii

A powerful storm low far northwest of Hawaii generated surf of 30 to 40 feet along the north-facing shores, and 15 to 25 feet along the west-facing shores, of all the islands. Water periodically flowed across many beach-front roads and properties throughout the event period. Law enforcement officials across the state had to close portions of roads and/or lanes from time to time to ensure motorists' safety in affected areas. No serious injuries or property damage were reported, however.
