Strong winds expected to slowly subside over Hawaii later today
Read Time:44 Second
Hurricane Dora and the high pressure over the northern Pacific, which are combining to create strong winds over Hawaii, are moving westward during the day today and should allow the winds to slowly lessen this afternoon.
“Expect slow decreasing wind speed trends across the Hawaiian Islands today,” the National Weather Service office in Honolulu said early Wednesday morning.
“Strong winds coupled with low humidity levels are producing dangerous fire weather conditions that will last through the afternoon hours,” the NWS said. Winds in the past hour have gusted as high as 66 mph on Maui.
By Thursday, a return to more typical breezy trade winds is expected over the islands. There is also expected to be some rain on Maui, though it will mostly be over the typically rainy eastern half of the island and not as likely over the regions affected by the fire.
