National Weather Service forecasters in Honolulu are calling for northeast winds around 35 knots — 40 mph — and rough seas of 15 to 18 feet. The warning remains in effect until 6 a.m. Monday.
A gale warning means winds of 34 knots to 47 knots — 39 mph to 54 mph — are imminent or occurring. Operating a vessel in gale conditions requires experience and proper equipment. Mariners without proper vessel and experience should remain in port, forecasters advised.
