KiloComing to iPhone and Android
Hawaiʻi, at a glance.
What is happening on your island right now — weather, roads, storms, earthquakes, the volcano, tsunami, and what neighbors report — in plain words, on one screen. Free. No ads. No account.
One email when the apps are ready. Nothing else, ever.
What Kilo shows
Weather
Right now and the next 24 hours, drawn as a curve. Three forecast models, so you can see where they disagree.
Roads
Every closure and crash on a real map, with the exact stretch that is closed and the county’s way around it.
Storms
Where a storm is, where it is going, and what that means for your island — in one sentence.
Earthquakes
What shook, where, how hard, and whether there is any tsunami worry. Usually: none.
The volcano
Kīlauea and Mauna Loa in plain words, and the vog at the monitor nearest you.
Tsunami
Is the spot you are standing on inside an evacuation zone? Checked on your phone, even with no signal.
Neighbor reports
A crash, a flooded road, a lost dog — neighbors tell neighbors, clearly marked as not official.
Built for everyone on the island
Big type, plain words, nothing to learn. It reads the official sources — the National Weather Service, Civil Defense, the state highways department, the USGS, the tsunami warning center — every few minutes and turns them into sentences a person can act on. It works on one bar of signal, and keeps working with none.

This waitlist is the one time we ask for an email. It is used for a single launch message, then deleted.
Kilo is not an emergency service. If someone is hurt or in danger, call 911.
