Hurricane Nolo is expected to bring potentially life-threatening and catastrophic flooding to Hawaii on Friday, according to the Guardian.
The storm threatens communities that are still recovering from devastating storms earlier this summer, the Guardian reported.
State activates National Guard
Hawaii activated more than 230 National Guard members and closed schools ahead of the storm, according to the report.
Forecasters said Nolo is expected to move west on Saturday and is not forecast to make a direct hit on the islands. Even so, it is expected to produce heavy rainfall, as much as 25 inches in some areas, along with large and damaging waves along the coast, the Guardian said.
Details on which islands or communities face the greatest risk, and on any evacuation orders, were not included in the available report.
