Hawaii faces potential impacts from a developing tropical system that could strengthen into a hurricane by the weekend. Residents should prepare for possible heavy rainfall, strong winds, and coastal flooding. In the Atlantic, while none of the systems pose immediate threats to land, the northeast Caribbean, including the Lesser Antilles and Puerto Rico, should monitor the forecast closely as one system may head in their direction. El Niño's influence is reducing Atlantic hurricane activity but increasing Pacific storm intensity, heightening risks for areas in the Pacific basin.
