.Southwest swell from Hurricane Lowell produced surf along south
facing shores in excess of warning criteria overnight. This surf
continues into the early morning hours, which may continue to
bring damaging surf to portions of Kauai County with the
potential for significant damage to coastal properties and
infrastructure, particularly to those areas along the coast
exposed to the southerly swell over the next several hours. Surf
will quickly fall to advisory criteria and then below advisory
criteria by tonight.

A medium-period east swell from former Tropical Storm Karina combined
with east to southeast wind wave generated by Hurricane Lowell will
maintain advisory level surf along east facing shores this morning,
but will drop below advisory levels by tonight.

* WHAT...Surf 20 to 30 feet rapidly declining through the day,
becoming 6 to 8 feet by this afternoon.

* WHERE...South facing shores of Kauai and Niihau.

* WHEN...Until 6 PM HST this evening.

* IMPACTS...Extreme...Expect ocean water surging and sweeping
over beaches, coastal benches, and roadways, creating the
potential for significant damage to coastal properties and
infrastructure, including roadways. Coastal evacuations and
road closures are possible. Large breaking waves may affect
harbor entrances and channels with significant damage possible
to docks, piers, ramps, and boats.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Vulnerable coastal roadways from Poipu to
Kekaha are susceptible to overwash, with Lawai Road at a
particular risk for overwash.

Information: 
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.
