Maui County says several homes are being evacuated because of floodwaters from Tropical Storm Olivia. The county said on its Facebook page Wednesday that several homes on Lower Honoapiilani (Ho-OH-pee-ee-lah-nee) Highway are being evacuated because of rising waters in a nearby river. Another home in the Waihee (WAI-heh-eh) Valley is being evacuated. Olivia is 110 miles (175 kilometers) southwest of Honolulu. It's moving west with maximum sustained winds of 40 mph (65 kph). The National Weather Service has canceled a tropical storm warning for Oahu and Maui, but says some areas will continue to get heavy rain for the next day.
