A question for all Honolulu homeowners:  are you truly prepared should Hurricane Felicia, or another storm later this season, hit Oahu?  It’s been over 15 years since the islands were struck by Hurricane Iniki, but that’s all the more reason to be prepared right now.

At 6:00pm last night, Felicia was 1300 miles east of Hawaii with winds around 135 miles per hour.  Tropical Depression Enrique is further away and is falling apart.  Felicia’s path is still very uncertain, but it appears the hurricane will continue moving west.  As Enrique weakens, high pressure may push Felicia toward the islands at a faster rate than forecasted.  We should expect this system to affect our weather by Sunday (August 9, 2009) morning and rain may fall for six to ten hours on Monday.
