The National Weather Service (NWS) in Honolulu has issued a Flood Watch for Maui County, including Maui, Lanai, Molokai, The Big Island, and Kahoolawe.
This alert is in effect from Wednesday afternoon through Saturday afternoon.

Impact & Risks

The heavy rainfall associated with the potential tropical cyclone could lead to flash flooding, especially in flood-prone roads, low-lying areas, and urban regions. Elevated runoff and overflowing streams may result in road closures and property damage. Urban areas are particularly vulnerable to rapid runoff, which could exacerbate flooding impacts. Residents in the affected areas, including Maui, Lanai, Molokai, The Big Island, and Kahoolawe, should remain vigilant as conditions may worsen quickly.
