Felicia has weakened significantly overnight, and its forecast path has jogged south again, with the storm's middle set to cross the Alenuihaha Channel.

That takes the heart of the storm just south of Maui County and farther south of Oahu and Kauai.
The winds have dropped enough that the storm is set to be a tropical depression as it heads across the Islands.
In our previous post just a few hours ago, it was expected to maintain winds of tropical storm strength across the state, but the strongest winds are now anticipated to be somewhat weaker, in the 35 to 45 mile an hour range, with more powerful gusts.
For much of the state, winds may not be that strong, but heavy rain and flooding remain a threat during the next three days. For more see the post below.
