The State of Hawaii is located on an archipelago in the central Pacific Ocean southwest of the continental United States, southeast of Japan, and northeast of Australia. The state was admitted to the Union of the United States of America on August 21, 1959, making it the 50th state. Its capital is Honolulu on the island of Oahu.
The climate of Hawaii is typical for a tropical area, although temperatures and humidity tend to be a bit less extreme than other tropical locales due to the constant trade winds blowing from the east. Summer highs are usually in the upper 80s °F, (around 31°C) during the day and mid 70s, (around 24 °C) at night. Winter temperatures during the day are usually in the low to mid 80s, (around 28 °C) and (at low elevation) seldom dipping below the mid 60s (18 °C) at night. Snow, although not usually associated with tropics, falls at 4,205 meters (13,796 ft) on Mauna Loa on the Big Island in some winter months. Snow rarely falls on Maui's Haleakala. Mount Waiʻaleʻale, on the island of Kauai, is notable for rainfall, as it has the second highest average annual rainfall on Earth, about 460 inches (1,168 cm). Most of Hawaii has only two seasons: summer from May to October, and winter from October to April.
Although hurricanes are a rare occurrence in Hawaii, all main islands have been affected by named hurricanes. The worst hurricane to hit Hawaii was Hurricane Iniki in 1992, which showed that Hawaii was indeed vulnerable to a direct hit.
The State of Hawaii has two official languages recognized in its constitution
adopted at the 1978 constitutional convention: English and Hawaiian.
Hawaii has a growing film industry administered by the state through the Hawaii
Film Office. Several television shows, movies, and various other media projects
were produced in the Hawaiian Islands, taking advantage of the natural scenic
landscapes as backdrops. Notable films produced in Hawaii or inspired by Hawaii
include Hawaii, Blue Hawaii, Donovan's Reef,
From Here to Eternity, In Harm's Way, South Pacific,
Raiders of the Lost Ark,
Jurassic
Park, Picture Bride, Lani Loa, Outbreak, Waterworld, Six Days Seven Nights,
George
of the Jungle, 50 First Dates,
Pearl Harbor,
Godzilla,
Blue Crush, The Even Stevens Movie, Race the Sun and
Lilo and Stitch. The
film Snakes on a Plane Forgetting Sarah Marshall takes place on a flight
departing Hawaii for the U.S. mainland. In addition the island scenes from ABC's
series Lost are almost
entirely filmed on the island of Oahu. Of course
Hawaii Five-O and Magnum P.I
were also filmed in Hawaii.
