The wider storm
A swell from a powerful low far northwest of the Aloha State generated surf of 15 to 25 feet, with occasional higher sets, along the north- and west-facing shores of Niihau and Kauai, and the north-facing shores of Oahu, Molokai, and Maui; and 8 to 14 feet along the west-facing shores of Oahu and Molokai. Strengthening trade winds caused a short-period swell that produced surf of 6 to 10 feet along the east-facing shores of Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Maui, and the Big Island. No serious injuries or property damage were reported.
