Special Weather Statement issued May 14 at 5:08PM HST by NWS Honolulu HI

Effective: Thu May 14, 2026, 5:08 PM
Expires: Fri May 15, 2026, 5:15 AM

An unseasonably strong upper low will move over the islands on Friday, bringing in very unstable air for this time of year. This will be enough for a few heavy showers or thundershowers to develop in some spots. Most of these should be relatively brief, so while widespread flash flooding is unlikely, ponding of water in poor drainage areas, and maybe even some small hail, could occur in a few of the heavier downpours Friday and Friday night.

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
