High-surf warning continues through 6 p.m. Friday

The National Weather Service has issued a high-surf warning for all north- and west-facing shores of Kaua‘i and Ni‘ihau through 6 p.m. today.

Entering the water in these areas during the warning is very hazardous, and could cause serious injury or death. Spectators are advised to use extreme caution, as large, breaking waves could make it dangerous for those standing along the shoreline.
