Hurricane Lowell Weakens After Battering Kauai, Leaving Flood Watches and Surf Warnings

Hurricane Lowell, which reached Category 3 status, passed west of Hawaii’s islands, bringing heavy rain and strong winds to Kauai before weakening into a tropical storm. The storm caused significant wind gusts and rainfall but avoided direct landfall, with the National Hurricane Center noting its offshore track spared the islands from the most severe impacts. Hawaii declared a state of emergency as Lowell became the third major storm to threaten the state in three weeks, amid an unusually active Pacific hurricane season.

Hurricane Lowell weakens to tropical storm after passing west of Hawaii

Hurricane Lowell passed just west of the Hawaiian Islands on Monday night, September 7, 2026, without making direct landfall. The storm had briefly reached Category 5 status before weakening to Category 4, with sustained winds of 145 mph. It brought heavy rain, dangerous surf, and hurricane-force gusts to Kauai, where Barking Sands recorded an 84 mph gust. By Tuesday, September 8, Lowell had downgraded to a tropical storm and was moving north, away from the islands. The event occurred during an active Pacific hurricane season fueled by El Niño, with two other storms, Karina and Marie, also active in the region.

Gulf disturbance set to become a tropical storm as Texas–Louisiana coast braces for impacts

A disturbance in the northwestern Gulf is forecast to strengthen into a tropical storm before making landfall along the northwestern Gulf Coast on Tuesday, triggering Tropical Storm Warnings from Port Bolivar, TX to the Vermilion/Cameron Parish line in Louisiana. The system is expected to bring 1–3 ft of storm surge, 3–6 inches (locally up to 9 inches) of rainfall, and tropical-storm–force winds as it tracks west-northwest at about 5 mph, with center currently around 27.8°N, 91.0°W and roughly 130 miles south of Morgan City, LA.

Dolly Poised to Weaken as It Heads Toward the Caribbean

The National Hurricane Center says Tropical Storm Dolly is a fast-moving system about 1,145 miles east of the Caribbean’s Leeward Islands, moving west at 24 mph with maximum sustained winds near 40 mph. Dolly is forecast to degenerate into a tropical wave before reaching the Leeward Islands, but heavy rain could lash the Caribbean this weekend, bringing flash‑flood risks to the Leeward Islands, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and Hispaniola. Florida isn’t expected to be threatened by Dolly, and forecasters note the 2026 Atlantic season is anticipated to produce 7–13 named storms with limited chances of major hurricanes.
