NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE

Radar this morning showed an area abundant moisture and an upper level disturbance south of the Big Isle.

The National Weather Service issued a flood watch for Hawaii island and Maui until Wednesday.

Heavy rain and possible thunderstorms are possible beacause of tropical moisture related to former Tropical Storm Ulika and unstable atmospheric conditions.

“We may have another round of enhanced trades showers and possible thunderstorms for the Big Island Tuesday night into Wednesday,” forecasters said.
