East shores under high-surf warning

Advertiser Staff

A high-surf warning has been issued for the eastern shores of the Hawaiian Islands until 6 a.m. Monday by the National Weather Service, but the high surf warning along northern shores has been downgraded to advisory level.

A northeast swell is expected to peak today and again later tonight in the 10- to 15-feet range before lowering Monday.

At 6 p.m., Hilo police said surf was high but no roads had been closed and no damage reported.

A northwest swell will boost surf heights to near advisory levels along the north shore Tuesday, the weather service said.
