Typhoon remnants kick up big waves

"Surfers heading to the North Shore over the next couple of days can thank the remnants of former Super Typhoon Choi-wan for the large waves that are expected to reach the Islands.

Choi-wan, which threatened Japan and other parts of Asia a few days ago, is now a large low-pressure system south of the Aleutian Islands.

Although thousands of miles from Hawai'i, the system has generated ocean swells that could cause surf of 15 feet later this afternoon or tonight on north-facing shores."
