    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 500 AM HST (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Darby was
    located near latitude 17.5 North, longitude 146.1 West. Darby is
    moving toward the west near 16 mph (26 km/h) and this motion is
    expected to continue during the next couple days with a slight
    increase in forward speed. The forecast track will bring the center
    of Darby, or its remnant low, south of the Big Island on Saturday.

    Maximum sustained winds are near 70 mph (110 km/h) with higher
    gusts. Weakening is forecast during the next couple days, with
    Darby expected to weaken into a post-tropical remnant low late
    Saturday or Saturday night before dissipating on Sunday.

    Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km)
    from the center.

    The estimated minimum central pressure is 993 mb (29.33 inches).


    HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
    ----------------------
    SURF: Large swells generated by Darby are expected to affect
    portions of the Hawaiian Islands over the weekend. These swells are
    likely to produce hazardous surf and dangerous rip current
    conditions. Please consult products from your local National
    Weather Service office in Honolulu, Hawaii for further details.
