Hawaii is preparing for an extremely dangerous weather event as forecasts predict waves reaching up to 50 feet along the northern shores, driven by a series of powerful Pacific storms. High surf warnings and advisories have been issued, leading to the closure of multiple beaches including Baldwin and Hookipa Beach Parks due to safety concerns. A combination of significant swells from the north and favorable trade winds are expected to culminate in a record-setting surf weekend. Local businesses, especially those in Haleiwa, are bracing for potential impacts from the surge, with many areas on alert for life-threatening conditions. The state continues to monitor these dangerous surf conditions as the swell approaches, with updates indicating that the largest waves are yet to come.
