(中央社洛杉磯6日綜合外電報導)美國國家颶風中心表示,隨著3級颶風羅艾爾(Lowell)逼近美國太平洋群島,夏威夷的考艾島(Kauai)和尼豪島(Niihau)已於今天晚間發布颶風觀察預警。
法新社報導,羅艾爾今天傍晚在檀香山市(Honolulu)西南方約840公里處帶來降雨,預計明天傍晚起將掠過夏威夷州最西端的幾座島嶼。
美國國家颶風中心(National Hurricane Center)氣象預報員說:「羅艾爾中心將於週一晚上穿越夏威夷主要島嶼西側的帕帕哈瑙莫夸基亞國家海洋保護區(Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument)部分地區。」
美國國家颶風中心指出,目前羅艾爾最大持續風速接近每小時120英里,考艾島可能將降下最高達14英吋的雨量。預計羅艾爾隨後將轉向西北方,並於9日清晨前減速。
羅艾爾本週早些時候一度增強為5級颶風,但之後減弱為3級颶風,最大持續風速為每小時125英里。
羅艾爾是目前在太平洋形成的3個風暴之一。太平洋受到強度接近歷史紀錄的聖嬰現象(El Nino)影響,海水溫度上升。
位於夏威夷以東約1000英里的卡琳娜(Hurricane Karina),今天在中太平洋減弱為熱帶風暴。另一個熱帶風暴馬利(Marie)位於墨西哥下加利福尼亞州(Baja California)南端西南方約數百英里處,目前正朝西北方移動,逐漸遠離陸地。

The Malaysian government announced the lifting of the haze emergency in Serian, Sarawak, but due to the impact of Indonesian forest fires, the local air pollution index is still at a very unhealthy level. The authorities called on the public to reduce outdoor activities and continue to monitor air quality.

The World Meteorological Organization released a report stating that climate change has led to frequent heat waves and wildfires, producing large amounts of micro-pollutants such as PM2.5. While industrial emissions regulations are effective, toxic smoke from wildfires is countering air quality improvements and posing serious threats to human health and ecosystems.
