The Hawaii Weather Story

Alerts & Climate
Warning · Jun–Nov
Hurricanes & Tropical Systems Soon
Iniki crossed Kauaʻi as a Category 4 in 1992 and Lane dropped 52 inches on the Big Island in 2018 — the tracks, the surf and surge, and every advisory the Central Pacific Hurricane Center has out right now.
Services · Oct–Mar
Surf & Swell Soon
The North Shore winter swell that made Oʻahu the capital of big-wave surfing, the summer south swells, and the high-surf advisories for every shore of every island.
Warning
Flash Flooding & Rain Soon
Hanalei took 49.69 inches of rain in 24 hours in April 2018 — a national record — and every island funnels a stalled front or a Kona low into its own valleys. Watches, warnings and rainfall, ahupuaʻa by ahupuaʻa.
Guide
Vog & Volcano Weather Soon
When Kīlauea erupts, the plume rides the trades down the Kona coast and the vog can reach Oʻahu — SO₂, particulates, and which way the wind is carrying it today.
Warning
Wildfire & Drought Soon
Lahaina in August 2023 was the deadliest American wildfire in a century, driven by hurricane-pumped downslope winds through dry leeward grass — red-flag days, drought, and the fire weather forecast.
Guide
Climate & Records Soon
Normals, records and long-term trends for all five counties — from the wettest ground in the country on Waiʻaleʻale to the deserts in the lee of Mauna Kea.
