## Resource

Hurricane Lowell turned Poʻipū into a war zone, with storm surge ripping roofs off and even sweeping a two-story house several feet—wild power, devastating losses. Steve Schneider lost his vacation rental but clings to memories; Nancy Silva Sutton fared better, her garage flooded, but she saw houses floating in the street. Local businesses like Mindy Hibbitt’s shave ice spot are heartbroken by the widespread destruction. Cleanup is underway, but officials warn stay away from hit zones—hazardous conditions linger. Recovery will be long, a brutal reminder of nature’s force and the grit needed to rebuild. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
