Timeline

  1. Closest approach expected

    Lowell's center is forecast to pass about 110 miles west of Niihau and 150 miles west of Kauai from late Monday night through Tuesday morning, at near Category 2 strength.

  2. Tropical storm warnings issued

    National Hurricane Center issues tropical storm warnings for Kauai and Niihau as Hurricane Lowell, a Category 3 with 120 mph winds, begins its northward turn; Governor Josh Green declares a state of emergency.

  3. Steering high weakens

    An upper-level high-pressure system that had been steering Lowell west weakens over the weekend as a cold trough from the north Pacific interacts with a nearby low-pressure area, allowing the hurricane to turn north toward Hawaii.

  4. Storm exits westward

    Moke forecast to continue moving west across the islands through early Tuesday.

  5. Moke reaches Big Island

    Heavy rain and wind from Moke expected to hit the Big Island late Saturday.

  6. Tropical Storm Moke forms

    NHC advisory places Moke about 660 miles southeast of Hilo, moving west-northwest at 9 mph with 45 mph sustained winds.

  7. 11,630 still without power

    Poweroutage.us reports 11,630 Big Island customers remain without power as Lala recovery continues.

  8. Downgraded to tropical storm

    The National Hurricane Center downgrades Lala at 2:00 a.m. HST (1200 GMT) as it pulls away from the Big Island without making landfall.

  9. Damage assessments and cleanup begin

    Governor Josh Green and emergency management officials hold a news conference; officials investigate possible storm-related deaths.

  10. Tropical storm warnings spread across state

    Warnings are issued for Maui, Molokai, Kahoolawe, Lanai, Oahu, Kauai, and Niihau; heavy rain and flood risk spread westward.

  11. Lala strengthens into Category 1 hurricane

    Hurricane Lala reaches sustained winds up to 75 mph (120 km/h, or 129 km/h in one report) near Hawaii.

  12. Hurricane Lala batters Hawaii

    Lala passes near Hawaii without landfall, downing trees and leaving roads covered in mud and rocks across the Big Island.

  13. Wave 2 emerges off Africa

    The second African wave moves off the coast, with a more north/northwest track giving it a somewhat better chance to develop before recurving well east of the U.S. and Bahamas.

  14. Disturbance begins northeastward exit

    The weak system near Jacksonville moves north/northeast, reducing rainfall coverage over Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia.

  15. NHC highlights two African waves

    Wave 1 over the Eastern Atlantic moves west toward the Caribbean, while Wave 2 is expected off Africa about Tuesday. Bermuda High break favors recurvature east of the U.S.

  16. Upper-level low lingers east of Florida

    Disorganized thunderstorms and enhanced onshore flow spread from Florida to the Carolinas, with no surface tropical development expected.

  17. Second landfall, downgrade, and dissipation

    Bertha made a second landfall early Thursday afternoon near the Texas-Louisiana state line, was downgraded to a depression Thursday evening, and was declared dissipated later that evening.

  18. Hurricane hunters confirm Tropical Storm Bertha

    Reconnaissance aircraft determined Tropical Depression Two had strengthened into Tropical Storm Bertha on Monday evening.

  19. Disturbance upgraded to Tropical Depression Two

    The system shifted west, was raised to high chance (red) by early Sunday, and was designated Tropical Depression Two late Sunday morning.

  20. NHC outlines Gulf disturbance

Atlantic hurricane season at 7% of normal as El Niño smothers storms

The 2026 Atlantic hurricane season has set a satellite-era record for inactivity, with zero hurricanes through mid-September and overall activity at just 7% of normal. A powerful El Niño is overriding warm ocean temperatures with wind shear, dry air, and sinking motion that suppress storm formation. Climate and risk professionals are watching how long the pattern holds and whether a late-season storm — like 1992's Hurricane Andrew — upends the quiet.

Cat 3 Lowell: Hawaii's 3rd Storm in 3 Weeks Tests El Niño Resilience

Hurricane Lowell's Category 3 winds and northward turn toward Kauai and Niihau mark Hawaii's third tropical cyclone threat in just over three weeks, underscoring how El Niño is supercharging the Pacific hurricane season. The storm is forecast to remain offshore but still brings heavy rain, dangerous surf, and hurricane-force mountain gusts, testing the state's climate resilience and renewable energy infrastructure.

Hawaii Braces for 15-Inch Rain as Moke Compounds Lala Recovery

Tropical Storm Moke is the second major tropical system to threaten Hawaii in a week, forecast to drop up to 15 inches of rain on the Big Island while 11,630 customers still lack power from Hurricane Lala. The back-to-back events illustrate how compounding extreme-weather episodes strain recovery and infrastructure even when a storm never makes landfall.

Hawaii Big Island counts 30-35 inches of rain as Lala weakens

Hawaii's Big Island began recovery on Aug. 16 after Hurricane Lala weakened to a tropical storm without making landfall. The National Hurricane Center expected 30-35 inches of rain over windward slopes, and officials warned that post-storm cleanup with generators and chainsaws poses a hidden casualty risk. The event underscores how extreme rainfall, not just wind, now drives Hawaii's climate risk.

Bertha's 45 mph, 2-Landfall Gulf Run Ends With Zero Storm-Force Winds

Tropical Storm Bertha, the Atlantic's second named storm of 2026, made two Gulf landfalls at an estimated 45 mph without producing sustained tropical-storm-force winds over land. Its top-down formation and sheared, dry-air-choked structure show how warm seas and a favorable MJO were outweighed by vertical wind shear and Saharan dust. The basin has since gone quiet, with Cristobal next on the list and no near-term areas of concern.
