Island weather chief meteorologist Pete cajano joins us now and Pete what can we expect to see well Gilma as it has fallen apart we got the last advisor so we'll no longer get advisories from the Central Pacific Hurricane Center and as you see we we no longer get the tracks because the system is technically not a trop depression or storm anymore so last advisory at 5 Winds of 30 it was moving off to the West Northwest at 12 we're not expecting a wind threat from the system but still expecting rainfall you'll notice most of the convection or we call shower and storms with it are getting sheared to the northern part of the storm that might actually be good news for the islands that means that the bulk of the Winds and the rain will likely miss the islands but we will get some rain it's really been battling cooler Waters and wind she and that's those Westerly winds strong a they really just tore this storm apart that's why the clouds are all getting shot off to the West basically the storm is getting split into two and that causes the storms to weaken our computer model is showing rainfall totals below an an however the official forecast has 1 to 3 in of rain and that's certainly a possibility National Weather Service is concerned that one of these showers maybe gets a little bit heavier produces some heavy rain also there is a slight chance we have an isolated thunderstorm or two especially on Friday I think the bulk of this rain falls on Friday we're going to talk more about these rainfall totals what impacts we can expect and when we clear out these tropical rains that's coming up all right thanks Pete and like you mentioned although Gilma has Fallen apart the Moi Emergency Management agency says that the recent storms are a reminder to always be prepared it also reminds people that we're not out of the woods yet hurricane season does last through November 30th and you can keep track of any storm by downloading our free weather app just scan that QR code that you see on your screen and make sure to stick with Island news as we continue to monitor the storms on air online and across all social media
