Still Recovering From Hurricane Lala, Hawaii Prepares for a Possible Weekend Cyclone
Forecasters said up to 15 inches of rain could hit the Big Island as 13,200 customers remained without power after Hurricane Lala.
- On Thursday, the National Weather Service's Central Pacific Hurricane Center warned that a tropical cyclone could strike Hawaii this weekend, threatening the Big Island just days after Hurricane Lala caused widespread damage.
- Lala's passage last weekend left nearly 15,000 homes and businesses without electricity while causing significant infrastructure damage, including washed-out roads and flooded homes across the Big Island.
- About 13,200 customers remain without power Thursday, with Hawaiian Electric reporting that repairs in heavily damaged areas could take at least two weeks as the state manages two hurricane-related deaths.
- Hawaii Gov. Josh Green scheduled a news conference for Thursday afternoon to address both the approaching storm threat and ongoing recovery efforts following Lala's destruction.
- Forecasters expect the system to pass near or south of the Big Island this weekend, potentially dumping up to 15 inches of rain and triggering life-threatening flooding and mudslides.
