Interactive: Hurricane Nolo Threatens Hawaii with Heavy Rain and Mudslides
- On Friday, Hawaii County residents faced a hurricane watch as Hurricane Nolo churned about 200 miles south of South Point, Hawaii, with nearly 85 mph winds.
- Designated Tropical Depression Fifteen-E earlier this week, the system shifted from a westward path toward the Big Island and intensified into a hurricane over warm Pacific Ocean waters.
- Forecasters warn that Nolo could drop 15 to 30 inches of rain, with the National Hurricane Center stating, "This rainfall could produce catastrophic life-threatening flooding and mudslides, especially in areas of steep terrain."
- Governor Josh Green declared a state of emergency Friday, ordering schools and some state offices closed, while Maui County remained under a tropical storm watch.
- Nolo is expected to reach Category 4 status with 140 mph winds by early next week, following last month's Hurricane Lala, which damaged or destroyed more than 100 homes while dropping up to 43 inches of rain.
