    DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
    ----------------------
    At 1100 PM HST (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Darby was
    located near latitude 17.4 North, longitude 151.2 West. Darby is
    moving toward the west near 21 mph (33 km/h) and this motion is

    track will bring the center of Darby south of the Big Island on
    Saturday.

    Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 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 1006 mb (29.71 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.

    RAINFALL: Darby is expected to produce localized storm total
    rainfall of 2 to 4 inches along portions of mainly windward Big
    Island and windward Maui. These rains may cause minor flooding
    especially in low-lying and poor drainage areas.
