The National Weather Service has issued a FLASH FLOOD WARNING for Tutuila, Aunu’u, Manu’a and Swains until 9:00 p.m., July 3, 2017. This is due to heavy rainfall from a trough across the territory triggering runoffs in small streams and along the main road. More rainfall is expected through Tuesday.
