Many of the Hawaiian Islands are under either a Hurricane Warning or a Hurricane Watch, as Category 4 hurricane Lane moves closer to the Hawaiian Islands. Highest winds sustained near the center of the hurricane are up near 130mph! Lane is moving to the northwest at about 7mph. Outer rain bands from this system have been sweeping over the Big Island and Maui county, and soon to be moving over
portions of Oahu and Kauai. The threat for flash flooding will be increasing in these areas as Lane continues to move closer. Hurricane Lane will likely bring life threatening conditions across
Hawaii with damaging winds, dangerous surf, coastal
storm surge and intense flooding rains through Saturday. Lane will begin to weaken soon and will continue to weaken over the next several days. So far as much as 9-12" of rain has fallen over the Big Island over the past 12 hours!
