Hawaii issues “First Alert” as possible 40 ft waves storm toward islands’ north facing shores!

Ready to rumble.

It is officially winter time in the northern hemisphere. The weather outside frightful and extremely so if one happens to be named Filipe Toledo and either on or thinking about traveling to Hawaii any time soon. Yes, forecasters are alerting the public a major swell event with waves predicted to reach between 25 ft to 40 ft.

75 ft Hawaiian.

23 Jason Stathams.

432 Male German Lower Legs.

Big big.

Hawaii News Now is warning Toledo, and others, that the business will get underway tomorrow (Tuesday) and last through the week, declaring also, “Models suggest the cold front will move into Hawaii during the second half of the week as it weakens. Rainfall amounts do not appear to be very significant, and will be brief as the front quickly moves through. Winds will strengthen out of the north behind the front around Thursday and eventually veer to the northeast by Friday.”

Might it all be enough for the fabled Eddie to run? The most famous surf contest in the world, now that the Pipe Masters has been turned to junk, is called on when wave heights at Waimea Bay tower to a consistent 40 ft throughout the day. It was last played on Jan. 22, 2023, the tenth time in its history, but who could ever forget when on-duty lifeguard Luke Shepardson won it at the end?

Not a dry eye in this house.

Jamie O’Brien, it must be noted, was invited on the first Eddie ballot thus saving presenting sponsor Rip Curl much embarrassment or need for capitulation.

Whew.

If that swell wraps enough, north winds on Thursday, Swabbieland could be firing.

Just the mere notice of the alert caused Filipe to weep and wail like a Harris voter.

Waxing my step-up as I type. Think I’ll go with the 6’4″

After saying at every campaign rally that he’s going to lower the price of groceries by fifty percent, he just said in the Time Magazine interview that he’s actually not going to be able to lower the price of groceries at all because “ that’s pretty hard to do”.

“Look, they (B&H) got them up. I’d like to bring them down. It’s hard to bring things down once they’re up. You know, it’s very hard,” he said in the interview published Thursday.

“But I think that they will. I think that energy is going to bring them down. I think a better supply chain is going to bring them down. You know, the supply chain is still broken. It’s broken,” Trump said.

To think basic foodstuffs prices have gone up because of supply chains…is a bit like those Jewish space lasers that control the weather , LOL!

I do.
Crane are a symbol of longevity and wisdom. the eggs are something very special. It’s like you get super powers after eating a crane egg salad samich or poached crane eggs on avocado toasties.
It’s why Kelly is biologically 39 yrs. old and so wise.

BTW- you do know that everything in your market is effected by supply chain issues as there are domestic and international supply chains, and that high fuel costs effect the cost of everything in the supply chain….. but I only know that because I eat Crane eggs.

how hard will it be for some of the poor folk that in their hearts actually believed some of the bullshit, to have to accept they were left on the highway walking while he drove past in a limo and put the windows up and on lock, but they won’t complain , or even accept it

There’s waves for sure. Rincon looked pretty good in the afternoon, terrible with morning high tide. Glassy all day. Quite a bit smaller today.

The last one was amazing, and seeing RCJ styling on bombs like it was 2001 was an unheralded highlight. Hero.
