Hydrologic Outlook issued February 15 at 10:03AM SST by NWS Pago Pago AS

ESFPPG

Satellite imageries show the main axis for the South Pacific
Convergence Zone (SPCZ) just south of the territory. The north
edge of the main axis is slightly over American Samoa at this
point. Model data projects the placement of the SPCZ over the
islands in the next 2 to 3 days, and remain throughout the new
week. Model projections thus far shows flash flooding conditions
peaking on Sunday evening through early Monday, and again on
Tuesday afternoon through the rest of the new week. Any additional
rainfall will increase the risk for flash flooding and landslides
in vulnerable areas as grounds have been saturated from the
recent rainfalls in the last couple of days.

Keep up to date with the latest forecast information through our
internet page (weather.gov/ppg), local media, social media, or
NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts. For more preparedness actions,
please call Territorial Emergency Management Coordination Office
(TEMCO) at 699-3800.

Next update will be around 10 PM tonight.
