Description

Tropical Storm Lala left a trail of blackouts across Hawaii, plunging over 250,000 customers on Hawaii Island, Maui County, and Oahu into darkness. Rural areas on Hawaii Island could face weeks without power as crews—now numbering over 500—race to restore service, starting with critical transmission lines. Helicopters and drones are being deployed to access remote zones choked with fallen trees and debris. Major areas like Waimea and Kamuela remain in the dark, while Hawaiian Electric urges residents to brace for extended outages as full damage assessments and potential rebuilds unfold.
