热带风暴佩纳生成 成中太平洋44年来首个11月风暴 距夏威夷550多英里暂无威胁
11月7日，热带风暴佩纳在中太平洋生成，成为自1982年以来首个在11月于中太平洋形成的热带风暴。美国国家飓风中心的数据显示，佩纳目前位于夏威夷以南东南550多英里处，持续风速为每小时50英里，预计下周可能加强为今年该海域的第14场飓风。气象部门预计，佩纳将继续向西移动、远离夏威夷，暂时不会对夏威夷群岛构成直接威胁。
1982年同样是一个超级厄尔尼诺年。迈阿密大学副研究员安迪·黑泽尔顿表示， NOAA预计超级厄尔尼诺状况将于今年秋末或冬季形成，这也是今年热带气旋活动异常活跃的背景之一。夏威夷州今年飓风季本就不同寻常，9月8日飓风洛厄尔曾给考艾岛波伊普等地造成损失，全州随后一直在进行灾后恢复，州公园部门11月7日当天也更新了多处州立公园因风暴损坏的关闭与重开信息。
气象部门提醒，尽管佩纳预计不会登陆夏威夷，但其外围云系和涌浪仍可能影响南部海域，前往海边的居民与游客应留意官方发布的海洋预报。州应急部门表示将继续监测佩纳的路径变化，如有转向北上的迹象会及时发布预警。

Tropical Storm Pena Forms as Central Pacific's First November Storm Since 1982, No Threat to Hawaii Yet
Tropical Storm Pena formed in the central Pacific on Nov. 7, the first tropical storm to form in the central Pacific in November since 1982. According to the National Hurricane Center, Pena is located more than 550 miles south-southeast of Hawaii with sustained winds of 50 mph, and could strengthen into the basin's 14th hurricane of the year next week. Forecasters expect Pena to continue moving west, away from Hawaii, and to pose no direct threat to the islands for now.
The year 1982 was also a super El Niño year. Andy Hazelton, an associate researcher at the University of Miami, noted that NOAA expects super El Niño conditions to develop in late fall or winter this year, part of the backdrop to an unusually active tropical season. Hawaii's hurricane season has already been extraordinary: on Sept. 8 Hurricane Lowell caused damage in places including Poipu on Kauai, and recovery has continued statewide; the state parks division also updated storm-related park closures and reopenings on Nov. 7.
Forecasters caution that although Pena is not expected to make landfall in Hawaii, its outer bands and swell may affect southern waters, and residents and visitors heading to the beach should follow official marine forecasts. The state emergency agency says it will keep monitoring Pena's track and will issue warnings promptly if the storm turns north.
