Storm Updates

Last Updated: August 17, 2026, 8:30 AM HST

Conditions have peaked and are gradually improving as Tropical Storm Lala moves away from the Hawaiian Islands. As localized flood warnings and watches remain active across the state, it is advised to avoid flooded roads, downed power lines, and unnecessary travel.

Storm impacts have closed many of our stations across the state. Below is a list of temporary closures, provided for your safety and the safety of our team members. Because conditions are changing rapidly, this list may become outdated quickly. We’ll update station openings and closures as soon as we can. Mahalo for your patience. Please stay safe.

Public Safety Instructions

Secure Your Property: bring in loose outdoor items and follow county guidance on shelter and evacuation routes.

Stay Informed: follow updates from local news, the Hawaiʻi Emergency Management Agency, and your county Civil Defense.

We are in communication with local authorities and will provide updates as they become available.
