HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Hurricane conditions are expected to develop over Hawaii County as early as late Wednesday and continue into early Thursday. Tropical storm conditions are possible over Maui County, including the islands of Maui Molokai and Lanai, on Wednesday into early Thursday. SURF: Swells generated by Madeline are expected to build from east to west across the Hawaiian Islands through tonight, possibly becoming damaging along east facing shorelines of Hawaii County and eastern portions of the Island of Maui Wednesday into Thursday. RAIN: Heavy rains associated with Madeline are expected to reach Hawaii County on Wednesday, and may impact other Hawaiian Islands later Wednesday through Thursday. Madeline is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 5 to 10 inches, with isolated maximum amounts near 15 inches, across Hawaii County, especially over windward portions. Madeline may produce 1 to 3 inches, with isolated maximum amounts up to 4 inches, of rainfall across Maui County. This rainfall may lead to dangerous flash floods and mudslides. STORM SURGE: Depending on the track of Madeline, the combination of storm surge and tides could cause normally dry areas near the coast to become flooded. The water could reach 1 to 3 feet above ground if peak surge were to coincide with high tide. The surge would be accompanied by large damaging surf and can vary over short distances.
