from Rochester News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Hurricane Lala narrowly missed a direct hit on Hawaii’s Big Island, bringing dangerous winds and torrential rain that caused one death, widespread power outages, and nearly 200 flight cancellations. With forecasters warning of life-threatening mudslides—especially in mountainous areas where makeshift homes are common—the storm’s impact echoes past disasters like Hurricane Iniki in 1992. Residents are urged to stay indoors as flash floods and falling trees pose ongoing threats, reminding communities that even a near miss can be devastating.
