Tropical Storm Moke bringing more rain toward already hurricane-ravaged Hawaii
- Tropical Storm Moke swept past Hawaii on Sunday, delivering heavy rainfall to Big Island communities that are still recovering from the aftermath of Hurricane Lala.
- By Sunday morning, meteorologists at the National Hurricane Center tracked Moke’s center to approximately 310 miles (500 kilometers) south of Hilo.
- Though maximum sustained winds reached 45 mph (75 kph), the main hazard remains torrential rain falling on areas where last week’s hurricane knocked down trees and power lines, caused mudslides, and damaged roads and infrastructure.
