COURTESY NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE

Radar forecast of the Hawaiian islands this afternoon.

The National Weather Service has canceled a flood advisory for Oahu.

The advisory was issued this afternoon after the weather service reported heavy rain across the northern half of the Koolau Mountains and along the Waianae Coast and the North Shore with rain rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour.

The downpour over the Koolau Mountains may cause rapid rises in streamwaters in areas along the windward side, north of Kaneohe.

The public is advised to steer clear from streams, drainage ditches and low-lying areas.

Residents and visitors are also urged not to cross fast-flowing waters in your vehicle or on foot.
