Hurricane Carlos only a threat right now to boats

After dropping down to tropical storm status on Sunday afternoon and spending all of Monday as a tropical storm, Carlos once again regained hurricane status earlier this morning.

Hurricane Carlos is located about 1465 miles southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico and it remains only a threat to marine interests.

Due to Carlos' small size, it has not become a huge wave generator and thus far has had little impact on the wave heights along the southern and southeastern facing shores of Hawaii.
