Get you up to speed: Warning over catastrophic and life-threatening flash flooding in Hawaii | News World
Hurricane Nolo, a Category 1 hurricane with maximum sustained winds of up to 80mph, is currently threatening Hawaii’s Big Island, which is under a warning for possible catastrophic flash flooding. The National Hurricane Center has reported that the hurricane is 240 miles south of South Point and could bring three feet of rain this weekend, with increased risks of mudslides and severe flooding.
Hurricane Nolo, currently 240 miles south of South Point, is forecast to approach the Big Island of Hawaii on Saturday, with maximum sustained winds reaching 80mph. The National Hurricane Center has warned that catastrophic flash flooding could result from up to three feet of rain, exacerbated by the island’s steep terrain, which also poses a risk for mudslides.
Hawaii’s Big Island is under an alert from US NOAA due to Hurricane Nolo, which could bring catastrophic flash flooding and is expected to deliver up to three feet of rain. Local officials have warned residents of potential mudslides and advised them to prepare for severe weather conditions this weekend as the hurricane approaches.
What remains unclear — It is not yet known how Hurricane Nolo’s predicted path may affect the damage assessment on Big Island.

A warning has been issued on Big Island in Hawaii over concerns about Hurricane Nolo gaining strength.
US NOAA has sent an alert for possible catastrophic and life-threatening flash flooding this weekend.
The National Hurricane Center has said that three feet of rain could be dumped on Hawaii, with Nolo having maximum sustained winds of up to 80mph.
Hurricane Nolo is a Category 1 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson wind scale and is currently 240 miles south of South Point.
It’s expected to pass very close to the Big Island, home to 210,000, on Saturday, but the damage could be greater if it takes a more northerly track.
Mudslides also present a threat due to the island’s steep terrain, which could also mean catastrophic flash flooding.

Hawaii has faced four tropical threats this season, despite not usually seeing much activity.
Hurricanes Lala and Lowell have already impacted the island, with at least one person left dead in August after a ‘terrible car accident’ during Lala.
Lala brought with it winds of up to 91mph, dumped 25 inches of rain on the island, and whipped up a 3ft storm surge, a change in sea level.
More than 60,000 were left without power and two homes in Naalehu have been swept away by ‘life-threatening’ floods, Honolulu-Star Advertiser reported at the time.
Only 19 hurricanes have passed within 100 miles of Hawaii, most during periods of El Niño, a weather system that blows warm ocean water west.
