The Central Pacific Hurricane Center (CPHC) of the United States National Weather Service is the official body responsible for tracking and issuing tropical cyclone warnings, watches, advisories, discussions, and statements for the Central Pacific region: from the equator northward, 140°W–180°W, most significantly for Hawai‘i.

The Honolulu forecast office activates the CPHC when tropical cyclones form in, or move into, the Central Pacific region.

The CPHC replaced the previous forecaster, the Joint Hurricane Warning Center, starting in the 1970 season.

The western edge of the area of responsibility, 180°W, is formally the antimeridian, though this coincides with the International Date Line for tropical latitudes, and thus these are often conflated.

They were replaced by Io (which was later changed to Iona), Iolana, Pama and Iopa respectively.
