Tropical Depression Fausto Weakens, High Surf Persists in Hawaii
US · Published Jul 30, 2026
Tropical Depression Fausto, located approximately 250 miles north of Hilo and 255 miles east-northeast of Honolulu, is weakening as it moves west-northwest away from Hawaii.
With maximum sustained winds of 35 mph, Fausto is expected to become a remnant low later today.

Impact & Risks

The primary impact from Tropical Depression Fausto is dangerous surf and strong currents along east-facing shores of Hawaii. These conditions pose risks to swimmers, surfers, and beachgoers, with potential for injuries or water rescues. Residents and visitors are advised to exercise caution near the shoreline. Hurricane Genevieve, while not a direct threat to Hawaii, highlights the ongoing activity of the Eastern Pacific hurricane season, which could bring future storms to the region.
