Tropical Storm Lala Hits Hawaii Hard | Fayetteville Arkansas News

Tropical Storm Lala slammed into Hawaii’s Big Island, leaving over 100,000 without power, toppling trees, flooding roads, and even disturbing burial sites in southern communities. Though weakened before landfall, the storm’s heavy rain and wind caused massive damage—especially in rural areas like Naalehu and Pahala, which need urgent support. Governor Josh Green praised resilient infrastructure and urged respect for ancestral remains while promising restored access within days. Hawaiian Electric faces major transmission damage, and 911 services briefly faltered but recovered. With the storm regaining strength at sea and dangerous surf warnings in place, cleanup crews are already on the ground as schools and offices remain closed.
