...Erick, Flossie and Gil...

The Central Pacific Hurricane Center is monitoring three tropical
systems. Tropical Depression Erick is now well southwest of the
Hawaiian Islands and will continue to weaken then dissipate into
Monday. Erick no longer offers a direct threat to the islands.
Tropical Storm Flossie is approaching the Big Island and is
forecast to clip/pass just north of the islands Monday/Tuesday
while weakening. Flossie proximity will bring some enhanced
weather impacts to the state. This will include potential for
heavy rains near the circulation as well as into favored island
terrain as increased south to southwest flow underneath Flossie
pumps deepened moisture inland. Tropical Depression Gil has also
formed well upstream over the tropical Pacific, but is not
forecast to reach Hawaii. Erick, Gil and especially Flossie also
offer a maritime high wind/seas hazard and warnings have been
issued. Expect a return to moderate trades in the wake of Erick
and Flossie as high pressure settles to the northeast of the
state, with heaviest shower potential over windward terrain for
the remainder of the week.
