Flood Watch issued March 12 at 3:15AM HST until March 14 at 6:00PM HST by NWS Honolulu HI

Effective: Thu March 12, 2026, 3:15 AM
Expires: Thu March 12, 2026, 6:30 PM

...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FOR THE STATE OF HAWAII THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON... * WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible. * WHERE...Niihau and Kauai. * WHEN...Through Saturday afternoon. * IMPACTS...Significant flooding may occur due to the overflow of streams and drainages. Roads in several areas may be closed, along with property damage in urban or low lying spots due to runoff. Landslides may also occur in areas with steep terrain. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Considerable flash flooding remains possible as a large and powerful kona storm northwest of the state draws deep tropical moisture northward across the islands. Persistent bands of heavy rain and thunderstorms may produce intense rainfall rates, leading to rapid rises in streams and flooding of roads and low lying areas.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.

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.
