Forecasters Warn Another Tropical System Could Be Brewing Southeast of Hawaii After Lala Left 2 Dead
The National Hurricane Center says the system has an 80% chance of becoming a tropical storm as models weigh a closer Big Island track.
- Early Wednesday, the National Hurricane Center gave a tropical disturbance about 1,300 miles southeast of the Big Island an 80 percent chance of developing into a tropical storm over the next seven days.
- Recovery efforts continue as Hawaiian Electric reported about 19,000 customers remained without power on Wednesday, down from nearly 104,000 on Monday, while authorities confirmed at least 100 homes were damaged or destroyed during Hurricane Lala.
- Hurricane specialist Larry Kelly noted the system has a 90% chance of becoming a tropical depression within 48 hours, though "things remain uncertain because the system has yet to develop."
- Another tropical storm or hurricane could affect Hawaii this weekend, with the FOX Forecast Center warning the biggest threat for the Big Island involves heavy tropical moisture pushing into windward terrain.
- Scientists Andy Hazelton and Daniel Swain warned the system could "seriously affect disaster recovery if it comes close," citing how warming sea surface temperatures are expanding across the Pacific.
