The Central Pacific Hurricane Center issued its final advisory on Post-Tropical Cyclone Olana at 5 p.m. HST on Monday, Oct. 26, 2026 (0300 UTC Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026), reporting that the storm had weakened to a remnant low with maximum sustained winds near 30 mph, about 500 miles west-southwest of Johnston Island.

The post-tropical cyclone was moving south-southeast at 7 mph, with a turn toward the east expected overnight, the center said. There were no coastal watches or warnings in effect, and the agency said Olana posed no hazard to land.

The system that produced Olana was first classified as a tropical depression near Johnston Atoll on Oct. 25, 2026.

Additional weakening was forecast, and the center said Olana was expected to dissipate on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026.
