It's Been Quiet In The Atlantic, But...

Hurricane Felicia is a Category 1 in the Central Pacific and is luckily weakening as it heads straight at Hawaii. It should continue to weaken and make landfall Monday night as a tropical storm.

Although hurricanes in the Pacific are common, it is extremely rare for storms to track this close to Hawaii. In fact, only ten storms have passed within 75 miles of the islands since 1950!
