Ignacio occupies the central position and is located about 650 kilometers south of Hilo on Hawaii. In this case, its winds exceed 225 mph and the minimum central pressure is 948 millibars, reports AccuWeather.com.
Further west lies Jimena, about 2,500 km southwest of Hawaii this August 31. Its winds reach 210 kilometers per hour, and the internal pressure is 949 millibars. The forecast is that Ignacio approaches Hawaii this week causing high waves and rain.
