Flossie Intensifies - Could Hit Maui and/or The Big Island | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1375920 United States 07/28/2013 07:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Tropical Storm Flossie strengthened overnight as it headed toward Maui County and Hawaii island, where it could come ashore after midnight tonight. Quoting: Rev StarGazer Hawaii and Maui counties are under tropical storm warnings and a statewide flash flood watch is in effect as Flossie threatens to bring strong winds, heavy rains and potentially dangerous surf to all islands. The warning, issued at 11 p.m. Saturday, means that tropical storm-force sustained winds of 39 mph or more are expected within 36 hours. Oahu is under a tropical storm watch, which means tropical storm conditions are expected within 48 hours. A flash flood watch has been issued for all islands from Monday morning through Tuesday night. The storm could drop up to 15 inches of rain to windward areas of Maui and Hawaii counties, and 6 to 10 inches in other areas, forecasters said. Up to 12 inches of rain could fall on windward Oahu and 4 to 8 inches in central and leeward areas. Kauai may see 2 to 4 inches of rain, with up to 6 inches on windward slopes.

Westsail Metta User ID: 39289784 United States 07/28/2013 10:14 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thank you for the thread Rev! Lol deja vu..wasn't the hurricane in August 2007 named Flossie? Wondering how that works... South shore Maui checking in here. Just want to remind everyone to be safe! We always get flooding here with big rains. Looks like everyone taking it pretty serious this time. The road by our house washed out in 2007. County crews out today (on a Sunday) already doing work. Just got back from the store and many people buying bottled water etc. They had every check stand open, never seen that before. Weather seems beautiful right now, a little windy but nothing too unusual. Ought to be a fun ride. Will keep you guys updated and post pictures if anything exciting.

Hot and sunny here too. Next update from NOAA should be in 1/2 hour. Looking at the computer models, there is a chance that it slides right through between Maui and the Big Island and on into warmer waters.
