Hawaii Braces for Hurricane Lowell | Fresno News

Hurricane Lowell is barreling toward Hawaii, sending a Fresno native and longtime resident Jeff Harrington into high alert as he braces for impact in Poipu. With rain pouring and winds intensifying, Harrington and his wife have fortified their home, cleared windows of hazards, and stocked up on essentials—leaving stores bare. The storm’s gravity hit hard Sunday night when hurricane warnings flashed on phones, stirring unease among locals who remember the catastrophic 1992 Category 4 Hurricane Iniki, which killed six and caused $1.8 billion in damage. Though decades have passed, the memory lingers—and now, community spirit is rising as neighbors rally to prepare together. For now, Harrington’s plan? Stay put, hunker down, and ride out the fury with water, food, and a portable stove ready if the power goes out. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
