Hurricane Lowell Hits Hawaii | Miami News

Hurricane Lowell is barreling toward western Hawaii with 110 mph winds, just shy of major Category 3 status, and dumping torrential rain—up to 2 feet in some spots—while knocking out power for tens of thousands. With hurricane-force winds stretching 70 miles out and dangerous surf, tornadoes, and flash floods looming, authorities are urging residents on Kauai and Oahu to shelter in place overnight as the storm barrels north-northeast at 18 mph. Rainfall could hit 24 inches on Kauai, 12 on the Big Island, and up to 10 on Oahu and Maui, making this one of the most hazardous weather events in recent memory.
