...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT THROUGH MONDAY AFTERNOON FOR MOST HAWAIIAN
ISLANDS...
* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.
* WHERE...Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Lanai, Kahoolawe, and Maui.
* WHEN...Through Monday afternoon.
* IMPACTS...Flood prone roads and other low lying areas may be
closed due to elevated runoff and overflowing streams. Urban areas
may receive more significant flooding and property damage due to
rapid runoff.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- An upper level disturbance will create unstable conditions
across the state. A low level trough moving in from the north
will combine forces with increasing northeasterly trade
winds, producing periods of moderate to heavy showers and
thunderstorms across most of the state. This Flood Watch may
need to be expanded to the Big Island by Monday morning.
You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
