Hurricane Lowell Expected to Pass Near One Hawaiian Island and Cause Major Rains Statewide

  • Hawaii declared a state of emergency on Sunday as Hurricane Lowell approached the islands, with the National Hurricane Center issuing a Hurricane Warning for Kauai County as the storm neared Kauai and Niihau.
  • The storm is the third system to threaten the region in just over three weeks during an active hurricane season, as weather patterns are forecast to become the strongest on record in four decades.
  • Hawaii Gov. Josh Green closed schools and government offices on Kauai and Niihau for Tuesday, as the storm threatens damaging winds, mudslides, possible tornadoes, and as much as 16 inches of rain to some areas.
  • Green stated that "Closing offices, schools and courts will help keep people off the roads during dangerous conditions," urging residents to remain indoors and avoid unnecessary travel.
  • Hurricanes Karina, Lowell and Marie were all churning in the Pacific as of Saturday, marking the region's first triple-hurricane stretch in a decade, while authorities monitor a fourth potential system off Mexico.
