Hurricane Nolo will continue to strengthen as it moves away from Hawaii, forecasters said, but it was still expected to lash the Big Island and Maui with heavy rain.
Hurricane Nolo has rapidly intensified into a Category 4 hurricane. Hurricane watches have been issued for parts of Hawaii as Nolo brings winds and high surf.
The storm was about 260 miles south-southwest from South Point moving west at near 12 mph as of the 5 a.m. advisory.
