...HIGH SURF WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM HST WEDNESDAY...

* WHAT...Surf 14 to 18 feet.

* WHERE...East facing shores.

* WHEN...Until 6 PM HST Wednesday.

* IMPACTS...Very High. Expect ocean water surging and sweeping
  across beaches, coastal benches, and lava flows creating the
  potential for impacts to coastal properties and
  infrastructure, including roadways. Powerful longshore and rip
  currents will be present at most beaches. Large breaking waves
  and strong currents may impact harbor entrances and channels
  causing challenging boat handling. In addition, tides are
  running higher than predicted and in combination with surf along
  east shores may lead to more inundation and coastal flooding
  during the daily high tide this afternoon.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Stay away from the shoreline along the affected coasts. Be
prepared for road closures. Postpone entering or leaving channels
affected by the high surf until the surf subsides.
