Hawaii faces potential impacts from a developing disturbance, which could bring increased moisture and rainfall over the weekend or early next week. While the odds currently favor the storm staying south of the islands, vigilance is advised throughout the hurricane season. Additionally, a system offshore of Mexico may develop into a strong hurricane, though it is forecast to move westward, away from populated areas. The warm ocean waters, intensified by El Niño, increase the likelihood of more frequent and stronger storms in the Pacific region this year.
