At 1100 AM HST (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Fausto was
located near latitude 22.5 North, longitude 152.2 West. Fausto is
moving toward the west-northwest near 12 mph (19 km/h), and a 
generally west-northwestward motion is expected to continue for the 
next several days. On the forecast track, Fausto should pass north 
of the Hawaiian Islands tonight through late Wednesday.
 
Maximum sustained winds are now near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher 
gusts. Weakening is forecast during the next couple of days,
although Fausto is expected to remain a tropical storm as it passes
north of the Hawaiian Islands.
 
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km)
mainly to the northeast of the center.
 
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1005 mb (29.68 inches).
 
 
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Fausto can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header HFOTCDCP1 and WMO header WTPA41 PHFO.
 
SURF: Surf generated by Fausto will continue to build westward
across Hawaii along exposed east-facing shores through today as
Fausto approaches and begins to pass north of the islands.  Large
surf and strong currents will lead to dangerous conditions along
exposed shores.  Please consult products from your local weather
office.
