The Kona low is a kind of low-pressure system that typically forms around Hawaii in the winter months. The National Weather Service’s science and operation officer in Hawaii, Robert Ballard, said the systems have some elements that differentiate them from similar meteorological systems in other regions. “What we tend to see are a tremendous amount of tropical moisture gets drawn up from equatorial regions.

It was initially suggested that triumph would mark the beginning of a new era of domination for the Reds, but they have been unable to maintain the same levels of consistency in their latest campaign. A five-match winless run has seen the reigning champions drop to fourth in the standings, six points behind current pace-setters Manchester United....

Having parted with the Brazil international during the January transfer window, those at Anfield were forced to make do until the end of the 2017-18 campaign. They fared admirably enough, with Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane leading the charge towards a top-four finish in the Premier League and the Champions League final. Jurgen Klopp has, however, been exploring creative options this summer – with a move for Lyon playmaker Fekir shelved following medical issues – and a big-money deal is expected at some stage....

Fans of Cardi, 29, started age-shaming Minaj, who is 39, on Twitter, claiming ‘SHES 40,’ to emphasize the rapper’s age as she comes closer to her 40th birthday in December.

That is exactly what Jon Mugar — the co-founder of “The Basketball Tournament” — and his partner, Vin Martelli, did in 2014. Teams began registering through the tournament’s website back on March 1, and after some creative social media initiatives, grassroots marketing and, ultimately, a fan vote, the 24 most popular teams were selected in May.
