The Jaws Challenge, formerly the Peahi Challenge, is on yellow alert for a possible event on Monday, November 26 or Tuesday, November 27, the WSL reported on its website and on social media.

According to tour commissioner Mike Parsons, a strong swell is heading toward Maui, with 30 to 45 feet expected. If the light is given to go, the warning will be issued tomorrow, Saturday.

"We're coming off a big event in Nazaré and there's a promising swell heading to Maui so we're hoping to give the green alert tomorrow," said Parsons, who is in charge of making the decision.
