Hurricane Erick entered Central Pacific waters yesterday morning. Erick is forecast to continue to gradually weaken through the week as it tracks south of the Hawaiian Islands. Residents should be prepared for high surf and the potential for heavy rains and high humidity beginning Thursday night.
While the track remains south of the islands, tropical cyclones can make unpredictable movements. Remain vigilant and monitor the progress of the storm. There is also another Hurricane behind it. Hurricane Flossie just became a hurricane today, and could potentially affect the state as early as Monday, August 5.
