Recent downpours have resulted in heavy runoff and debris on Saddle Road between the mile 10 and 11 markers above Kaumana City on Hawaii island, according to county officials.

Motorists are urged to exercise caution in the area.

One lane of Waipio Valley Road is now open after crews responding to a landslide had to close both lanes at about 9 a.m. Police urge motorists to exercise caution driving through, as debris remains on the road, and clean-up crews and heavy equipment may still be working in the area. Additional landslides are also possible. Police discourage foot traffic due to the hazardous conditions.

Forecasters said showers are expected in the Hilo area today, with occasional showers tonight. Breezy weather is expected throughout the isles, with scattered windward and mauka showers in the evening, and some showers spilling over to the leeward area.
