Before you go

  • WeatherHigh surf and Hurricane Lowell swell affecting West Maui coast

    Southerly swells from distant Hurricane Lowell are keeping surf above High Surf Advisory levels along leeward/west Maui through Saturday, with the National Weather Service Honolulu carrying a High Surf Advisory covering Maui Leeward West. Lowell is forecast to stay well west of Maui, turning north Sunday toward the western Hawaiian islands, but Maui could see 2-4 inches of rain with isolated higher totals.
