## Resource

Hurricane Lowell’s aftermath left 1,500 Oʻahu residents in the dark Tuesday night, but crews are making rapid progress—restoring power to over 13,000 since morning. Most of Nānākuli, Waiʻanae, and Mākaha are back online, though those still without power may need an electrician to fix property damage before reconnecting. The hardest-hit areas along Leeward and Windward coasts endured 81 mph gusts and over nine inches of rain, even without direct storm impact. Utility teams are inspecting lines from ground, drone, and helicopter levels, navigating debris-choked roads and flooded Farrington Highway—now partially reopened with rerouted traffic as state crews clear sand and wreckage.
