Pena: First Central Pacific November Storm Since 1982

Tropical Storm Pena formed about 650 miles southeast of Hawaiʻi, becoming a rare November storm in the Central Pacific. It is moving west and is forecast to pass well south of the islands, posing no threat to land; forecasters say it could strengthen over the next day, though its longer-term track and intensity remain uncertain. The storm may boost trade winds, but is unlikely to bring rain to Hawaiʻi.
