HIDOE: 13 Oahu, Big Isle and Molokai schools to close due to storm-related damage - Honolulu Star-Advertiser

A flood watch remains in effect for most of Hawaii, indicating that conditions favorable for flooding persist across the islands. The National Weather Service typically issues such watches when heavy rainfall or saturated ground increases the risk of flash flooding in vulnerable areas. Flood watches mean residents should monitor weather updates and be prepared to evacuate if conditions worsen or flash flood warnings are issued. The watch underscores the threat that seasonal weather patterns or weather systems pose to low-lying communities, roads, and infrastructure across the Hawaiian islands. Residents are advised to avoid driving through flooded roadways and to move to higher ground if water begins to rise.
