ReportagePrès d’un pied de pluie est tombé par endroits sur l’île d’Hawaï. Le risque d’inondation lié à Nolo persisteRédigé 27 septembre 2026 à 06:16 UTCRegarderTranscription0:11On September 10th, we reported offshore Lowell damaged Kauai and Nihau.0:16Now NOLO drenches Hawaii Island.0:18NOLO's hurricane watch has been canceled, but rain is still intensifying and0:22flooding and mudslides could be life-threatening.0:25How much danger remains after the storms turn away from the island?0:28By Saturday, September 26th, some places on the big island had received nearly a0:32foot of rain.0:33That is an observation from some locations, not a final total for the island.0:37Another 8 to 10 inches was possible, especially across its south and east.0:41Whether that additional rain fell and where has not been established.0:44The distinction matters on ground that has already taken heavy rain.0:47A forecast is not a measurement, but further rainfall could send water into roads0:52and homes or destabilize slopes.0:54The September 27th rain risk update does not establish that catastrophic flooding or0:59a mudslide actually occurred.1:00Tropical storm conditions were already occurring on Hawaii Island on Saturday.1:05Gusts of 50 to 60 miles per hour had occurred in some places, particularly near1:09higher mountains.1:10A separate forecast put possible gusts as high as 75 miles per hour.1:14That higher figure was not an observed wind speed.1:17By September 27th, strong winds and rough surf had also reached Oahu, including the1:21Waikiki and Diamond Head area.1:24No specific damage or measured surge there has been established.1:27NOLO's center stayed offshore.1:29One Saturday update placed it a little more than 150 miles south of the Big Island1:34and expected it to move west, taking the heaviest rain away.1:37At eight that morning, a separate account put the center about 145 miles south of1:41Ka'u, moving west at 3 miles per hour.1:44Those approximate distances refer to different places and reporting times.1:48They are not a measured change in distance from one point.1:51Conditions were expected to improve from Saturday night, especially on Sunday and1:54Monday, but improvement in the affected communities has not been verified.1:58No direct landfall was projected.2:00An offshore center, though, does not keep its rain, wind, or surf offshore.2:04The Big Island's hurricane watch was still in effect at 8 Saturday morning and was2:08canceled later that day.2:09The exact cancellation time is not verified.2:12A tropical storm warning for Hawaii County and a flood watch across the island2:15remained when it was canceled.2:17We cannot establish whether either alert was still in force later Sunday.2:20A watch cancellation is a change in the expected hurricane wind threat, not evidence2:25that flood water has receded.2:27Friday's outlook explains why preparations were extensive.2:30On September 25th, NOLO was a Category 2 hurricane with sustained winds of 105 miles2:35per hour, moving at about 5 miles per hour.2:38The Big Island entered a hurricane watch, meaning hurricane conditions were possible2:41within roughly 24 to 36 hours.2:43Maui was under a tropical storm watch.2:46Forecasts warned of 10 to 25 inches of rain across affected areas, locally more than2:512 feet, and up to 10 inches on Maui.2:53An early discussion allowed for Category 4 strength and winds up to 140 miles per2:58hour over the next 72 hours.3:00That was a possibility, not a strength verified to have occurred.3:04Other early rainfall projections included 15 to 20 inches widely and a possible3:08local maximum of 35 inches.3:10In one forecast, an estimate as high as three feet was revised down to around two3:15feet.3:16Another still allowed locally more than two feet.3:18Those changing ceilings cannot be treated as final accumulation.3:22Saturday's more localized update separated the nearly one foot already recorded in3:26some places from the additional eight to ten inches still possible.3:29The storm's reported strength change too.3:31An earlier Saturday account still placed NOLO at category two with winds above one3:35hundred miles per hour.3:36By Saturday evening it was reported at category one with sustained winds above3:40ninety.3:41A separate September twenty-seven account described category two and one hundred and3:44five mile per hour winds, but did not identify a Sunday advisory supporting that as3:48the latest measurement.3:49The latest clearly dated strength in this material is Saturday evening's Category 13:54report.3:54NOLO's Sunday intensity is not verified.3:57A bulletin valid early Saturday had placed the storm near 16.9 degrees north and4:01155.3 degrees west, moving north at three knots with ninety knot sustained winds.4:07That is a historical position before the later westward turn.4:11not a Sunday fix.4:12People had prepared before the closest approach.4:14Shelters opened in Hawaii and Maui counties.4:16In Hilo, residents described hunkering down and many events were canceled as a4:20precaution.4:21State and county offices, public schools, and University of Hawaii campuses on4:24Hawaii Island were set to close Thursday and Friday, September 24th and 25.4:27Maui County closures expanded Friday.4:29Parks, campsites, forest reserves, state-managed trails, and natural area reserves4:34closed on Hawaii Island beginning Thursday and on Maui and Molokai beginning Friday.4:39Those are dated decisions, not proof that every site remains closed.4:42Reopening dates have not been verified.4:44President Donald Trump approved a pre-landfall federal emergency declaration on4:48September 25 after Hawaii requested it.4:51It covers Hawaii, Kauai, and Maui counties, and the city and county of Honolulu.4:55It authorizes federal emergency protective measures, including direct federal4:59assistance with a 75% federal share of eligible costs.5:02That does not mean 75% of all storm damage will be reimbursed or established that5:07any household has received aid.5:09The federal incident description calls the event Tropical Storm NOLO, while the5:13governor's announcement calls the approaching system Hurricane NOLO.5:16Neither administrative wording establishes its later measured strength.5:19One account mentioned a closed Big Island mountain highway, but its name, location,5:23cause, damage, and reopening time have not been verified.5:26The answer to the flood question is therefore limited.5:29Nearly a foot had fallen in some places by Saturday.5:32More rain was possible, and the September 27th risk remains serious even as NOLO5:36turned away.5:37There is no verified final island rainfall total, Sunday storm advisory or later5:42warning status in the checked material, nor is there a confirmed storm death,5:46injury, flood damage total, or landslide damage total.Lire l’articleChronologie de l’histoireHeyDexLe format court ↗Qui a rapporté quoiPoints rapportés par plusieurs médias✓Forecast rainfall
