Hawaii Hurricane Season Expected to Be Below Normal
What's going on?
The Hawaii News Now weather team reports that the central and eastern Pacific have been relatively quiet this hurricane season, with only one disturbance forming so far.
The closest feature to the island chain was Invest 9091E, which has since dissipated.
What's next?
As tropical activity ramps up over the Pacific, a tropical rainstorm could come close to Hawaii over the weekend.
However, the National Hurricane Center predicts that this year's hurricane season will likely be below normal for waters around Hawaii.
What does this mean?
While it's impossible to predict exactly how many hurricanes or tropical storms will make landfall in Hawaii this season, the outlook suggests that it may be quieter than average.
However, residents should still be prepared for the possibility of severe weather and take necessary precautions.
