Hurricane Fausto poses a low to moderate risk to the Hawaiian Islands, with the potential for damaging winds, heavy rainfall, and dangerous surf conditions. The NHC estimates a 5% to 10% chance of tropical storm-force winds impacting the islands. The most significant impact is expected to be from swells, which could lead to life-threatening rip currents and high surf along the eastern shores of Hawaii starting Sunday, July 26. Residents are advised to prepare for possible disruptions and monitor updates as the storm's track and intensity remain uncertain.
