Storm exits westward
Moke forecast to continue moving west across the islands through early Tuesday.
Moke reaches Big Island
Heavy rain and wind from Moke expected to hit the Big Island late Saturday.
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.
11,630 still without power
Poweroutage.us reports 11,630 Big Island customers remain without power as Lala recovery continues.
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.
Damage assessments and cleanup begin
Governor Josh Green and emergency management officials hold a news conference; officials investigate possible storm-related deaths.
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.
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.
Hurricane Lala batters Hawaii
Lala passes near Hawaii without landfall, downing trees and leaving roads covered in mud and rocks across the Big Island.
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.
Disturbance begins northeastward exit
The weak system near Jacksonville moves north/northeast, reducing rainfall coverage over Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia.
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.
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.
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.
Hurricane hunters confirm Tropical Storm Bertha
Reconnaissance aircraft determined Tropical Depression Two had strengthened into Tropical Storm Bertha on Monday evening.
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.
NHC outlines Gulf disturbance
The National Hurricane Center flagged a low-chance (yellow) area over the northeastern Gulf extending across Florida and the southeastern U.S. coast.
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'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.
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.

Two African easterly waves and an upper-level low near Florida highlight the Atlantic's shift into peak hurricane season. Wind shear and a displaced Bermuda High may limit development, but coastal flood and rip-current risks remain. Forecasters urge preparedness as the wave train cycles up.

Tropical Storm Bertha made landfall in Louisiana with 45 mph winds and a sprawling wind field, disrupting coastal communities and highlighting the compounding risks of extreme heat and tropical cyclones. The storm's impacts on energy infrastructure and urban resilience reflect broader climate adaptation challenges.
