Tropical Storm Moke Approaches Hawaii Amid Recovery from Hurricane Lala

Tropical Storm Moke Approaches Hawaii Amid Recovery from Hurricane LalaPreviousNext

Tropical Storm Moke approached Hawaii's Big Island, threatening heavy rain and strong winds amid recovery from Hurricane Lala, which caused flooding, mudslides, and two deaths. Forecasters warned of life-threatening flooding, especially on the windward and southeast slopes, with rainfall up to 38 centimeters in isolated areas. Power outages persisted, and officials urged residents to prepare by restocking essentials and sheltering in place. Moke was expected to pass south of the islands while Tropical Storm Iselle formed in the eastern Pacific.
