Note
Primary: NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center Honolulu / NHC Miami Post-Tropical Cyclone Lowell Advisory Number 60 and Discussion Number 60 (Forecaster Papin), 500 PM HST / 0300 UTC Fri Sep 11 2026 (EP122026). Intermediate Adv 59 (2100 UTC Thu Sep 10) cited for bridge only.
What it is not: a Hawaii main-island landfall; a re-ship of Adv 35–59 or PM Adv 58 HOLD; inventing rain/surf totals (Adv 60 lists land hazards None); claiming live intensity after 0300 UTC — see HUD / High Seas; SWPC; ECDO proof; Bible prophecy.
Why it matters
Status-change FINAL card: Tropical Storm → Post-Tropical, product ID 60, land hazards still none, ~815 mi NW of Lihue. Replaces obsolete Wire Adv 54 tropical framing; regeneration needs a new product, not nostalgia.
