Huracán Lowell devasta Kauai, provocando daños generalizados y cortes de energía

Según NBC News, el huracán Lowell, de categoría 2, dejó una destrucción extensa, inundaciones y cortes de energía para aproximadamente el 80 % de los clientes en Kauai, mientras que otras islas hawaianas también experimentaron lluvias intensas y vientos, y se reportaron dos muertos. Días antes, el Centro Nacional de Huracanes había pronosticado que el sistema se movería al oeste al sur de las islas antes de girar al norte, emitiendo avisos de viento para Oahu, el condado de Maui y la Isla Grande y anticipando condiciones de categoría 3-4 cerca de Kauai. Posteriormente, el Servicio Meteorológico Nacional emitió una alerta de huracán para Kauai y una alerta de inundación para todo el archipiélago, y el gobernador Josh Green declaró estado de emergencia, ordenando el cierre de escuelas y oficinas gubernamentales en Kauai, Niihau y Oahu.
