Tropical Storm Lala has wreaked havoc across Hawaii, leaving over 180,000 residents without power and causing significant damage to at least 100 homes. The storm has resulted in flash floods that swept away houses, particularly in the Ka‘ū District, with reports of one fatality so far. In response to the extreme weather, the Hawaii governor has declared a state of emergency. As Lala continues to weaken, threats of heavy rain and strong winds remain, contributing to widespread road closures and hazardous conditions. Utility crews are struggling to restore power as outages affect nearly 250,000 customers statewide. With emergency services conducting search and rescue operations, the full extent of the devastation is still being assessed.
