Hurricane Nolo now looking to mostly miss Hawaii, which is good... (so much disaster damage there already this year) from the discussion:
"...The hurricane has been situated in an environment that is quite conducive for strengthening, with low vertical wind shear and sufficiently warm sea surface temperatures. This regime should
persist for at least the next 12 hours or so. However, the global models indicate that vertical shear over Nolo should increase substantially by Tuesday. Therefore, the hurricane should begin weakening within 24 hours or so. Nonetheless, Nolo's annular structure could result in a slower rate of weakening than seen in
typical hurricanes. In 4-5 days, the models suggest a more favorable upper-level flow pattern, which could result in some re-strengthening. The official intensity forecast remains at the
high end of the model guidance...." -

Window blown out at 2 a.m. thanks to the winds of Hurricane Nolo. Luckily it went out instead of in, onto my sleeping mom. Just about done with a temporary fix before the winds return and rains begin. Running a double panel on both sides of the window so it won’t blow in or out. These winds are coming from multiple directions. Had to pick up a bunch of shattered glass that was blown around the roof. #HIwx #HurricaneNolo #HawaiiMastodon
