Puna Weather
Sunday 7th September 2025
Today and most of Monday continued light winds and mostly dry.
Monday night through Wednesday humid with scattered showers, some of which could be heavy at times. Light to moderate north winds early Tuesday turning to southerly by later in the day.
Thursday less humid with less humidity and a return of moderate easterly trade winds, bringing more typical scattered showers, mostly during the night and early morning hours.
This morning Kiko continues to be a major hurricane with CAT3 winds according to a recent hurricane hunter flight. The storm is slowly weakening and likely to pass by to our north on Tuesday as a strong tropical storm or weak hurricane. We will be on the weaker wind side of the circulation and also the less rainy side. Still abundant tropical moisture associated with Kiko will overspread our island beginning late Monday or early Tuesday.
Kiko is pushing a swell towards our island likely beginning Monday and peaking early Tuesday with 12'-15' surf for east facing shores.
