A theoretical forecast map of a hypothetical Category 4 hurricane inbound for the island of Oahu published by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center.

Makani Pahili (alternatively Makani Pāhili, Hawaiian for strong wind)[1] is an annual disaster preparedness exercise for tropical cyclones[2] organized between the United States Armed Forces and Hawaiian civil agencies that occurs near the beginning the local hurricane season.[3] The event is coordinated by the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency. Drills are not intended to impact the public;[4] though, in order to avoid confusion with any real event, all communications related to Makani Pahili are marked with the phrase "exercise, exercise, exercise".[5] Should a real emergency take place, Makani Pahili's operations would cease.[6]

During the exercise, a hurricane named Makani is simulated to impact the Hawaiian Islands.[5] Mock watches and warnings are issued for the hurricane and its intensity will be tracked and plotted.[7]

Hawaii's ports are tested for the impact of damages.[4]

Amateur radio operators volunteer during Makani Pahili to aid in communication during a disaster.[2] Service members from the Continental United States also participate in exercise.[8] Hospitals have used Makani Pahili exercises to receive accreditation.[9]
