Tropical Storm Lala slammed Hawaii with hurricane-force winds and torrential rain—without making landfall—causing over 200,000 power outages, sweeping homes off foundations, and triggering emergency rescues. The Big Island took the hardest hit, with hospitals running on generators and roads blocked by fallen trees and washed-out bridges. Oahu saw hundreds of weather-related calls, including a swimmer pulled from rough waters. Forecasters warn Lala may regain hurricane strength as it heads west, while heavy rains threaten landslides in vulnerable areas. Amid the devastation, communities rally—with resilience shining through as residents rebuild together. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
