When Hurricane Lala swept past the Hawaiian Islands, it brought relentless, historic mayhem despite mercifully missing a direct landfall. The monster system dumped over three feet of rain in just 48 hours in parts of the Big Island, triggering massive flash floods that washed out roads, collapsed bridges, and severely damaged or swept away over 100 homes. Winds howling over 70-90 mph ripped off roofs and flattened power grids, leaving over 100,000 residents across the state dark and gridlocked, while torrential bands caused hundreds of emergency calls across Oahu and Maui. From rare whiteout snow at the summit of Mauna Kea to raging rivers tearing through coastal towns, Lala proved that even a near-miss from a hurricane in Hawaii can deliver complete and utter chaos
