Live ENSO status
What this usually means here
El Niño periods from late fall through early spring have more often brought lower-than-average rainfall across Hawaii.
That callout is statewide / Hawaiian Islands, not a Honolulu-neighborhood official product: island and windward/leeward contrasts still matter locally. Odds language only (“often,” “tends to”).
