Summary

Tropical Storm Nolo strengthened into Hurricane Nolo as it approached Hawaii in late September 2026. The storm did not make direct landfall on the Big Island but its outer bands brought heavy rainfall, high winds, and dangerous surf conditions. Rainfall totals reached up to 20 inches in some areas, though lower than initially forecast and less severe than previous hurricanes. The storm caused road closures, including a 20-mile stretch in North Kohala, power outages, and some flooding and wind damage. Hawaii officials issued hurricane watches and warnings, opened emergency shelters, and closed schools and government offices in preparation. President Trump approved federal disaster assistance and an emergency declaration to support response efforts. The National Guard was activated and utility crews worked to restore power. By late September, the storm was moving away from Hawaii toward the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument, with overall impacts described as milder than anticipated. The Hawaii Department of Health has not confirmed the incident. Vital signs of Ambrie Gilbert were checked during a mobile clinic, and a large swell associated with Hurricane Nolo continued to affect the marine national monument.
