According to the latest data Hurricane Fausto became a Category 2 storm Friday reaching higher speeds. Wind speeds reached 100 mph according to radar measured by aircraft. Current forecasts show it weakening before hitting Hawaii or shifting north possibly as a tropical storm early next week. Hawaii officials told people to finish storm prep Friday to stay safe yet urged vigilance. The risk of heavy damage dropped substantially but big waves remained a problem. Shorelines will see 15-foot surf through the weekend posing threats to swimmers for locals. The storm moves west now as expected and could impact navigation. It could come close to Hawaii potentially by Tuesday or Wednesday based on current motion. The Central Pacific Hurricane Center round the clock keeps tracking it with regular updates.
