Hurricane Lala skirted Hawaii’s Big Island without making landfall but brought strong winds and drenching rain, causing flooding across the region. Governor Josh Green reported at least one death in the South Point area, while 190 flights were postponed due to the storm's impacts. Forecasters warned that higher elevations on the island, such as areas near Mauna Kea, could receive up to 25 inches of rain, potentially causing mudslides.
