The primary risks from Hurricane Lowell include strong winds, elevated surf, and potential power outages. Gusts of up to 55 mph are forecast under the current Wind Advisory, which remains in effect until 6 a.m. Friday. South-facing shores of Maui County may experience high surf this weekend, though no surf advisories have been issued yet. Hurricane Karina is expected to weaken and pass well northeast of the islands, posing minimal risk. However, the fluid nature of these storms increases the uncertainty of their impacts, particularly for Hurricane Lowell, which could shift closer to the islands depending on its trajectory.
