Dry Hawaii Spring Weather Forecast

Big Island areas have received the most intense drought classification ever. South Kohala and leeward North Kohala are the hardest hit. Measurements recorded the lowest February rainfall totals since 2000. Forecasters are predicting below-normal rainfall for Hawaii through spring.

The dry weather is being attributed to ongoing El Nino conditions that are producing dry and stable weather conditions through the heart of Hawaii's normal wet season.
