No GeoTIFF is available for this photo.Image Caption: Maui, Lanai, Molokai, and Oahu, respectively, November 1998. During the 1997/1998 El Nino, the usual NE tradewinds were drastically reduced and even reversed at times. The low-level equatorial winds have remained near normal across the eastern Pacific, including Hawaii, since early June 98 and stronger than normal over the western Pacific. The islands are acting as a barrier to the NE winds and creating island wakes in both the atmosphere and ocean.
