Hurricane Fausto Weakens as It Approaches Hawaii; Tropical Activity Intensifies in East Pacific
US · Published Jul 25, 2026
Hurricane Fausto, currently a Category 2 storm, has peaked in intensity as it moves through the East Pacific toward Hawaii.
Cooler waters and dry air are expected to weaken the storm significantly, with forecasts suggesting it will reach Hawaii as either a tropical storm or a remnant low.

Impact & Risks

Hurricane Fausto's weakening trajectory suggests limited impacts to Hawaii, though heavy rain and high surf are possible starting Tuesday night into Wednesday. Tropical Storm Genevieve, while intensifying rapidly, is forecast to remain over open waters, minimizing risks to populated areas. Another system in the East Pacific could develop into a tropical depression, but its potential impacts remain uncertain. Residents in Hawaii should remain vigilant as forecasts evolve, particularly regarding Fausto's progression.
