Okema Becomes Extratropical

TS Okema has become an extratropical system and CPHC has issued the last advisory for the system. The gale center will move north northeast and pass well to the east of Midway Island today. In Hawaii these winter systems usually have subtropical characteristics and are known as 'Kona' lows and can produce wind gusts on the Islands in excess of 80mph.
