Hawaii Island's youngest field reporter

Sep 26, 2026

A six-year-old on Hawaii Island has become a local favorite by filming his own storm updates, a light story amid an anxious hurricane watch.

  • Hurricane Nola is still being tracked, with forecasters expecting it to turn away from the islands.
  • The boy, CJ, posts his own hurricane updates and promises to report again before bedtime.
  • He got interested after learning about weather in his kindergarten class and has been covering storms since.
  • His parents say he genuinely worries about people in Hawaii but wants his clips to make people smile.

Outlook: Attention stays on whether Nola turns before it reaches the islands.
