- Considerable flash flooding is possible this week beginning
early Tuesday as a powerful kona low develops northwest of
the state and draws deep tropical moisture across the
islands. Persistent bands of heavy rain and thunderstorms may
produce intense rainfall rates, leading to rapid rises in
streams and flooding of roads and low-lying areas.
You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
