Tormenta tropical Moke trae lluvias intensas y riesgo de inundaciones a la Isla Grande de Hawái

El 24 de agosto, el portavoz del servicio meteorológico estatal informó que la tormenta tropical Moke trajo varios centímetros de lluvia a la Isla Grande de Hawái, activando una alerta de inundación y elevando el riesgo de inundaciones repentinas y deslizamientos de tierra. El sistema se había identificado el 20 de agosto como la Depresión Tropical Two-C, situada a unos 1 450 km al este-sureste de Hilo, y se pronosticó que podría producir hasta 38 cm de lluvia y oleaje peligroso. Posteriormente se intensificó y pasó a ser la tormenta tropical Moke, con pronósticos de 13-25 cm de lluvia y vientos fuertes, y llegó pocos días después de los estragos dejados por el huracán Lala, reavivando los temores de inundaciones y deslizamientos.
