The Waipi'o Soccer Complex is currently open, but may close depending on weather conditions.
The city's swimming pool and weight room at Kailua District Park are currently closed because of lack of electricity, city officials said.
Several parks facilities that had been closed are now reopened, including Manoa District Park's new gym, Booth and Salt Lake swimming pools and Wahiawa Gym, although the gym's parking lot is still closed because of a large fallen tree that is blocking the entrance.
