Hawaii Monitors Potential Tropical Storm Lala Development
US · Published Aug 11, 2026
The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is closely monitoring an area of low pressure, designated as Invest 93C, located approximately 1,100 miles southeast of the Big Island of Hawaii.
This system is expected to organize into a tropical depression and potentially strengthen into Tropical Storm Lala later this week.

Impact & Risks

The potential impacts of Tropical Storm Lala on Hawaii vary depending on its eventual track and intensity. If the storm remains far enough north or south, Hawaii could experience high surf, coastal flooding, showers, and gusty winds. However, a closer approach could result in strong, damaging winds, heavy rainfall leading to flooding, and more severe coastal flooding. Residents in hilly or mountainous areas should be particularly cautious due to the risk of flash flooding and landslides.
