HONOLULU (Reuters) - A Hawaii big wave surfing competition has been called off due to unfavourable weather, as state officials warned on Tuesday that swells projected to be the biggest in a decade to hit the island of Oahu could pose risks to beachgoers.
The potentially dangerous giant waves, forecast at 40- to 50-feet (12-15 meters), are expected to hit the island of Kauai at midnight local time on Tuesday and arrive on Oahu shores at 2 a.m. or 3 a.m. on Wednesday morning.
