DisasterAWARE is the most powerful disaster risk intelligence platform—growing from decades of collaboration with top agencies to protect millions worldwide.
Sending a big Mahalo (thank you) to our partners in El Salvador!
Our team was excited to be back in San Salvador this week to share the results of the Risk Resilience and Advanced Analytics (R2A2) project. Building on the original National Disaster Preparedness Baseline Assessment (NDPBA; https://t.co/JhRpUZDeD8), R2A2 provides an understanding of risk and vulnerability and disaster management trends over time, and key insights into the driving factors for those changes.
The team also was excited to deliver hands-on training on Risk and Vulnerability Assessments (RVA) and DisasterAWARE Training-of-Trainers, helping expand capacity development across ministries for years to come.
We commend you on your continued dedication to strengthening disaster preparedness and resilience across El Salvador!

Isaias has intensified into a hurricane in the central Gulf. Isaias is forecast to continue strengthening into a Category 2 hurricane later tonight before reaching the northern Gulf Coast late Friday into early Saturday.
A life-threatening storm surge is expected from the Mouth of the Mississippi River to Suwannee, Florida. Damaging hurricane force-winds are expected over portions of the Florida Panhandle, southern Alabama, and southern Mississippi where a Hurricane Warning is in effect. Damaging wind gusts are possible over much of central and northern Alabama and portions of western and northern Georgia, especially in areas of higher terrain. Isaias will bring heavy rainfall to the central U.S. Gulf coast and much of the Southeast Friday into the weekend. Considerable flash and urban flooding, along with significant river flooding, will be possible.

Sending aloha and a big mahalo (thank you) to our long-time partners at the Philippines Office of Civil Defense (OCD)! The team was excited to be back in Manila recently to upgrade PhilAWARE and provide advanced administration training. We also commend OCD for its continued commitment to leveraging the latest technology and data to strengthen early warning, preparedness, and resilience across the region.
PhilAWARE serves as a mission-critical tool within OCD's Emergency Operations Center (EOC) for hazard early warning and decision support. These enhancements and training efforts reflect our ongoing collaboration with OCD and help ensure continued access to real-time situational awareness, advanced analytics, hazard information and alerts, and actionable risk insights. Together, these capabilities support informed decision-making, resource prioritization, and coordinated disaster planning and response when it matters most.
PhilAWARE is part of PDC’s advanced DisasterAWARE ecosystem and a custom version created for the Philippines. Learn more!

Hurricane Lowell is currently about 600 miles south of Lihue, Kauai and could be near major hurricane strength when it moves close to the western Hawaiian Islands late Monday and Monday night. Continue to monitor DisasterAWARE for updates with each advisory, including potential impacts as this event unfolds.
Regardless of Lowell's exact track and intensity, there is a risk of storm surge, wind, and rainfall for portions of Hawaii, particularly Kauai County, early next week. Heavy rainfall may produce flash flooding and mudslides, especially in areas of steep terrain.

Hurricane Lowell remains a powerful Category 4 hurricane located about 450 miles south-southwest of Hilo and 605 miles south-southeast of Lihue, Hawaii. Forecasts indicate Lowell could be at or near major hurricane strength when it moves near the westernmost main Hawaiian Islands late Monday and Monday night. While it is still too soon to determine the exact track, Lowell could bring storm surge, strong winds, and heavy rainfall to portions of Hawaii early next week.
Continue to monitor DisasterAWARE for updates as Hurricane Lowell progresses.

Lowell is currently a powerful Category 4 hurricane located about 455 miles south-southeast of Hilo, Hawaii. Over the next few days, Lowell is expected to continue moving westward. However, a northward turn is possible over the weekend, and there remains considerable uncertainty about the timing and extent of that turn.

Tropical-storm-force winds from Lala, accompanied by gusts to near hurricane strength, will persist over Maui County, Oahu, and Kauai County today. The strongest winds will occur over areas of higher terrain. Rain will continue to taper off across the Big Island and Maui this afternoon, however additional areas of flash flooding and mudslides will be possible. Heavy rainfall and the potential for flooding and mudslides will continue across the rest of the island chain through later tonight.

Lala has strengthened to a Category 1 Hurricane. Damaging hurricane-force winds are expected on the Big Island of Hawaii today, with the strongest wind gusts expected in areas of higher terrain. Tropical-storm-force wind gusts are also spreading across portions of the smaller islands and should continue through Sunday.

Sending aloha to our partners in Guatemala! PDC was excited to return to Guatemala (NDPBA-2018; https://t.co/JhRpUZDMsG) as we continue to support SOUTHCOM's DisasterAWARE Integration and EOC Modernization program. Mahalo (thank you) to the Executive Secretariat for the Regional Coordination for the Reduction of Disasters (CONRED) for organizing the training and inviting a diverse and talented group of participants.
This engagement marked the second of five scheduled trainings to support DisasterAWARE integration (https://t.co/bYrXC4sl0d) throughout Central American and the Caribbean. The training focused on local hazards and the application of data layers and risk and vulnerability assessments in planning and response to further strengthen national and local capacity and capabilities for early warning and response operations.
Together, we’re strengthening sustainment planning, expanding national and local collaboration, and advancing new partnerships to support early warning and risk assessment.
