Tropical Storm Lala Hits Hawaii Hard | Mobile News

Tropical Storm Lala slammed into Hawaii’s Big Island with devastating force, leaving over 100,000 without power, roads blocked by fallen trees, and homes washed away—especially in rural communities like Naalehu and Pahala. Though the storm weakened before landfall, torrential rain and mudslides proved more destructive than wind, cutting off access and straining emergency response. Governor Josh Green says recovery will take days, with cleanup crews already on the ground. While damage was severe, many structures held up—and officials warn residents to stay out of the ocean as dangerous conditions persist. The storm is now heading west, expected to re-intensify far from land. Schools and offices remain closed through Tuesday.
