Potential Tropical Storm One-C Approaches Hawaii, Significant Impacts Expected

Potential Tropical Cyclone One-C is currently east-southeast of the Hawaiian Islands and is projected to strengthen into a tropical storm, reaching the area by late Friday. This system poses a risk of significant impacts, including widespread rainfall of 5 to 10 inches, with isolated areas potentially receiving up to 20 inches. Such heavy precipitation could lead to life-threatening flash flooding, urban flooding, and mudslides across the islands, alongside expected wind and wave effects.
