Now there's two more increasingly organized formations in the east Pacific spinning off the southern tip of Baja and Mexico with the potential of becoming a tropical depression.sigpic The Tasty Island

Re: Hurricane Felicia
This storm seems to have lost its punch because prevailing winds from the west destroyed it. From Iniki we know Hawai'i does lie in warm enough water to support full strength hurricanes. At least these days we have satellite weather info to give warning enough to prepare and or to evacuate. And, don't pilots usually steer around dangerous weather?

Re: Hurricane Felicia
We still have to be careful. So many hurricanes which have passed South of the Big Island have turned North/NE and hit us badly: Dot (1959), Iwa (1982), and Iniki (1992) all circled back - almost as if the trade winds hitting Hawaiian Islands creates a vacuum into which the storms are drawn.
Be Prepared! (and hope and pray it misses).

Re: Hurricane Felicia
Excerpt From Office of The Governor Website:
http://hawaii.gov/gov
“Felicia is expected to produce extremely heavy rainfall with the potential for widespread flash flooding, increasing on Tuesday and continuing into Wednesday,” the weather service said.
"As we currently are in hurricane season, which runs through November, residents should prepare a family disaster plan, which should be discussed in detail with every family member.
"Families are also advised to prepare a disaster supply kit with enough food and water for three to seven days. The emergency kit should also include medicine, toiletries, clothes, blankets, a radio, a flashlight, spare batteries and pet supplies in case an evacuation is necessary.
"In addition, residents should take the time to locate the nearest emergency shelter. A complete list of shelters statewide, including those designated for individuals with special health needs as well as for pets, can be found on the Internet at www.scd.hawaii.gov."
It's better to be safe than sorry.
Prepare.
Be safe everyone and God Bless.
