Rare trio of Pacific hurricanes fueled by historic El Niño
Three Pacific hurricanes, Lowell, Karina, and Marie, formed simultaneously, a rare occurrence linked to a historically strong El Niño warming ocean waters. Hurricane Lowell strengthened into a Category 4 storm with peak winds of 140 mph, while the storm system also raised the possibility of rain and surf effects for Southern California and prompted preparations in Hawaii, including readiness of facilities on Kauai and Niʻihau in case they need to be activated, though an exact timeline was not yet available.

Rare train of Pacific cyclones fueled by historic El Niño
Phys.org's AFP-sourced articles frame the story primarily through a climate-science lens, emphasizing that the rare cluster of Pacific hurricanes is fueled by a historically strong El Niño, quoting climate scientists on warming oceans, linking the event to global impacts (Peru's anchovy industry, Sudan's Nile levels), and situating it within broader discussion of climate change's role in intensifying El Niño and its effects.

The New York Post frames the story as a regional weather/travel-impact piece focused on what the storm cluster means for California and Hawaii residents specifically—potential rain and surf hazards for Southern California, and threat assessments and evacuation readiness for Hawaii's Kauai and Niʻihau—without discussing El Niño's climate science or global context.
