episode_narrativeAn intense low pressure area about 1500 miles south of Samoa moving from west to east generated high surf along south shores of American Samoa. Damagign wave action and strong rip currents associated with the extremely high surf were being observed all the way from Vaitogi to Vailoatai and from Nuuuli to Fagaalu. Surf of 3 to 5 feet were also observe within the Bay Area which are very rare. Sections of the Main road were washed off or overrun by surf spreading debris, sand and rocks from Vasaaiga to Fatumafuti.
