As of 10 AM, the National Weather Service dropped the High Wind Warning from Ni’ihau to Mau’i County as the potential of damaging wind gusts has dropped off.
The cold front has passed Kaua’i and is now making its way through O’ahu. Gusts were reported between 40 to 50 mph, and 50 mph gusts are still possible. Although southwesterly winds have not been as strong as expected, high gusts will still persist across Mau’i County and eastward as the afternoon progresses.
Therefore, a High Wind Advisory is now in effect for the entire Mau’i county area throughout the afternoon into the evening hours. The High Wind Warning for the summits is still in effect.
Out in the water, all weather alerts mentioned earlier remain in effect.
Showers across the state have been moderate to heavy. With the blustery conditions, rainfall is staying on the move with no threat of flooding expected at this time.
