...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND GUSTY WINDS TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY, POSSIBLY LONGER...

As Invest 96W continues to slowly organize and strengthen north of
Kosrae/east of Pohnpei, inflow into the developing disturbance will
allow for locally heavy rainfall to develop, with over 1 inch per
hour rain rates probable from time to time. Rainfall totals will
likely be 2 to 5 inches tonight through Wednesday, with locally
higher amounts possible.

Winds will also increase as 96W strengthens, and at least isolated
wind gusts to 35 knots are possible with any heavy shower or
thunderstorm that develops.

Gusty winds and elevated, choppy seas will make marine conditions
difficult. Residents may need to reconsider plans for inter-island
boating as the week continues. Also keep up to date with the latest
information from your local emergency management agency.
