DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 200 AM HST (1200 UTC), the eye of Hurricane Nolo was located
near latitude 23.3 North, longitude 170.4 West. Nolo is moving
faster toward the west near 13 mph (20 km/h). A mainly westward
motion with an additional increase in forward speed is expected
during the next few days. On the forecast track, the center of Nolo
will continue to move through the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National
Monument but remain just south of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands
west of Maro Reef.
Maximum sustained winds are near 110 mph (175 km/h) with higher
gusts. Rapid intensification could continue over the next day or
so, with Nolo forecast to become a major hurricane later today.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 25 miles (35 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 115
miles (185 km).
The estimated minimum central pressure is 964 mb (28.47 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
WIND: Tropical storm conditions will continue within the Tropical
Storm Warning area from French Frigate Shoals to Maro Reef through
this morning. Tropical storm conditions are expected to begin
farther west from Maro Reef to Lisianski Island today.
SURF: Large waves associated with Nolo will continue to affect the
Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument over the next several
days. The surf will likely inundate some of the low-lying atolls
from French Frigate Shoals to Lisianski Island. Please consult
products from your local weather office.
