Hurricane Lowell poses risks primarily to marine areas in the Central Pacific, with high winds and rough seas expected. The storm's wind radii indicate that tropical-storm-force winds extend far from the center, potentially impacting shipping routes and small islands in the region. Seas are forecast to reach up to 4 meters (13 feet) in some quadrants, creating hazardous conditions for vessels. As the storm weakens, the intensity of these impacts is expected to diminish, but caution is advised for those in affected areas.
