A watch is typically issued 48 hours\nbefore the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force\nwinds, conditions that make outside preparations difficult or\ndangerous.\n \nA Hurricane Warning may be required for portions of the\nPapahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument on Monday.\n \nFor storm information specific to your area, including possible\ninland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your\nlocal National Weather Service forecast office.\n \n \nDISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK\n----------------------\nAt 1100 PM HST (0900 UTC), the eye of Hurricane Nolo was located\nnear latitude 16.5 North, longitude 161.3 West.  Nolo is moving\ntoward the west-northwest near 12 mph (19 km/h).  A turn toward the \nnorthwest is forecast on Monday, with a turn toward the north \nexpected on Tuesday.  On the forecast track, the center of Nolo will \nremain well south and southwest of the main Hawaiian Islands but \nwill approach the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument on \nTuesday.\n \nMaximum sustained winds have increased to near 155 mph (250 km/h) \nwith higher gusts.  Nolo is a category 4 hurricane on the \nSaffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.  Some additional strengthening \nis expected, and Nolo could become a category 5 hurricane on \nMonday.  A gradual weakening trend is likely to begin by late \nMonday.\n \nHurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the\ncenter and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 150 miles\n(240 km).\n \nThe estimated minimum central pressure is 929 mb (27.44 inches).\n \n \nHAZARDS AFFECTING LAND\n----------------------\nWIND: Hurricane conditions are possible in the Hurricane Watch area\nin the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument by Wednesday, with\ntropical storm conditions possible by Tuesday.\n \nSURF: Swells generated by Nolo will be affecting south-facing\nshores of the main Hawaiian Islands for the next few days. These\nswells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current\nconditions.  Large surf associated with Nolo will affect the\nPapahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument beginning on Monday.\nThese large waves will likely inundate some of the low-lying atolls,\nespecially from French Frigate Shoals to Nihoa.
