Hurricane Hone passed just south of Hawaii on Sunday, bringing heavy rains that led the U.S National Weather Service to call off red flag warnings for wildfire risks on the islands' drier sides.
Meanwhile, in the eastern Pacific, Tropical Storm Hector has formed, showcasing top sustained winds of 72 kph. According to the U.S. National Hurricane Center, Hector is currently far out at sea, and there are no coastal watches or warnings in effect at this time.
While Hawaii's recent heavy rainfall has temporarily eased concerns over potential wildfires, the formation of Hector adds another layer to the Pacific's dynamic weather patterns. Residents and enthusiasts worldwide are keeping a close eye on these developments as they unfold.
