Weather Alert: Expect Heavy Rain and Possible Flooding on Monday and Tuesday

HONOLULU (Hawaii News Now) – As we progress into the week, trade winds are diminishing, leading to a forecast of light to moderate breezes with ample sunshine and occasional brief showers throughout the weekend.

However, significant changes are anticipated at the start of the new week. A low pressure system is expected to develop approximately 1,300 miles southwest of Hawaii and gradually move closer, drawing in moist tropical air from the south. This could result in heavy rainfall across the state. The combination of the low’s slow movement and the likelihood of intense showers raises concerns for flash flooding. Consequently, Monday and Tuesday are deemed First Alert Weather days. For ongoing updates, tune in on-air, online, or via mobile devices.
