Live hurricane and tropical storm tracker for Molokai (Molokaʻi).

The Central Pacific hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30. Activity usually peaks in August and September, but storms can threaten the islands at any point in the season.
The Central Pacific Hurricane Center, part of the National Weather Service office in Honolulu, issues the advisories, watches and warnings for storms near Hawaii. HawaiiStorm shows their data. It is not an official source.
A hurricane watch means hurricane conditions are possible, usually within 48 hours. A hurricane warning means they are expected, usually within 36 hours. A warning is the signal to finish preparing.
The cone shows where the centre of the storm will probably go: historically the centre stays inside it about two-thirds of the time. It says nothing about the storm's size. Damaging wind, heavy rain and high surf often reach far outside it.
