AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoHurricane Lala recovery: Hawaii Island residents are still dealing with washed-out roads, health warnings about floodwaters, and uneven restoration of basics like water, with hot showers and device-charging sites listed for Kaʻū and nearby areas as Tropical Storm Moke looms. Next storm pressure: Officials say Moke is expected to stay south but could bring heavy rain and flooding risk to already-saturated, Lala-hit terrain—prompting more stocking up and renewed concern for communities with limited power and generators. Rural hardship in Pahala: Residents describe long stretches without electricity and reliance on neighbors, with fears that another hit could repeat the same gaps in government response. Volcano access disrupted: Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park shut down again as Moke and Kīlauea monitoring pressures collide, limiting entry to confirmed overnight guests. Infrastructure and logistics: Honolulu’s new harbor cargo terminal is nearing completion, including arrival of massive electric gantry cranes for the state-owned container operation. Local business resilience: Verizon says it’s staging backup power, mobile/satellite equipment, and emergency messaging support for back-to-back storms after Lala damage.
