Maximum sustained winds are near 130 mph (215 km/h) with higher gusts. Lane is a powerful category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Little change in strength is expected for the next day or so, with a weakening trend expected to begin on Tuesday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 30 miles (45 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 125 miles (205 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 964 mb (28.47 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Large swells generated by Lane will impact the Hawaiian Islands this week. These swells will produce large and dangerous surf, as well as strong currents, along some shorelines. RAINFALL: Heavy rainfall and possible flooding associated with Lane is likely to affect portions of the state later this week.
