Waikoloa, HI Severe Weather Alertstar_ratehome

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.

* WHERE...All Hawaiian islands.

* WHEN...From Wednesday morning through Friday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Significant flooding may occur due to excessive rainfall
and overflow of streams and drainages. Roads in several areas may
be closed, along with property damage in urban or low lying spots
due to runoff. Landslides may also occur in areas with steep
terrain.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Low pressure will develop west of the islands and draw
abundant moisture northward as it strengthens during the next
couple of days. This will bring potential for heavy rain and
thunderstorms leading to flash flooding over all Hawaiian
islands.


PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.

...KILAUEA EPISODE 44 PRECURSORY ACTIVITY PAUSED...

WHAT...An episodic fountaining eruption is expected within
the Kilauea summit caldera. The Hawaiian Volcano Observatory has
indicated a potential eruption window extends through Wednesday,
April 15th. Fountaining episodes typically last less than 12
hours but ash can remain in the air longer depending on wind and
weather.

IMPACTS...If an eruption occurs, varying levels of ash, Pele's
hair, and other lightweight tephra may fall downwind of the
eruption. Smaller particles can travel farther from the eruption
site and may affect communities at greater distances. For the next
several days, "downwind" will be to the north and northeast of the
summit.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
If you live downwind of the Kilauea summit, or plan to visit the
summit area, stay informed about current volcanic activity and
weather conditions. Be prepared to take precautions if needed,
such as disconnecting water catchment systems. Follow all guidance
from the National Park Service and the County of Hawaii. Be aware
that road or park closures may occur.

This statement will be issued daily and updated as needed.
