located near latitude 21.9 North, longitude 151.7 West. Fausto is 
moving toward the west near 14 mph (22 km/h), and a generally

Hawaiian Islands tonight through late Wednesday.

north of the Hawaiian Islands.

mainly to the northeast of the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

Key messages for Fausto can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header HFOTCDCP1 and WMO header WTPA41 PHFO.
 
SURF: Surf generated by Fausto will continue to build westward 
across Hawaii along exposed east-facing shores through today as 
Fausto approaches and begins to pass north of the islands.  Large 
surf and strong currents will lead to dangerous conditions along 
exposed shores.  Please consult products from your local weather 
office.
