Hurricane Lala Still Packs a Punch | Dover News

Hurricane Lala may have downgraded, but it’s still packing a brutal punch across Hawaii’s Big Island—with nearly three feet of rain triggering deadly mudslides, hurricane-force winds on mountain slopes, and waves crashing ashore. Over 60,000 homes are without power, hospitals running on backup generators, and at least one death reported. Roads are blocked, roofs destroyed, and residents brace for flash floods and falling trees—especially the giant, unstable albizia trees. With tropical storm warnings still active for Maui, Oahu, and Kauai, forecasters warn some high elevations could see up to 35 inches of rain, making this storm a life-threatening threat for those living off-grid or in vulnerable housing.
