The Pacific Ocean is teaming with tropical activity as forecasters track two named systems and a few other disturbances this week.

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Hurricane Iona has started to weaken rapidly as it moves westward, well south of Hawaii. Meanwhile, Tropical Storm Keli is hanging on in intensity as a weak tropical storm to the southeast of the state.

A major hurricane was churning across the Pacific Ocean but was several hundred miles south-southeast of Hawaii and posed no threat to the islands, forecasters said Tuesday. Hurricane Iona is one of two major weather systems in the central Pacific Ocean.
