The eye of Hurricane Douglas is being tracked by the Molokai radar as the tropical cyclone moves west-northwestward just north of the western end of the main Hawaiian Island chain. A Hurricane Hunter aircraft, which is currently flying in Douglas, indicates it has intensified slightly during the past few hours. In addition, the radar and aircraft are showing short-term wobbles in the forward motion of the tropical cyclone. The Hurricane Hunter's will continue to provide valuable data as Douglas moves away from the Molokai radar, and it will be poorly sampled by the Kauai radar.
