Impact & Risks

The Big Island faces life-threatening risks from flooding, strong winds, and storm surge. Extreme rainfall could cause rivers to overflow, leading to evacuations and property damage. Landslides and mudslides are likely in mountainous areas, while urban flooding could make roads impassable. Winds may cause structural damage, uproot trees, and result in widespread power outages. Coastal areas could experience storm surge flooding, beach erosion, and hazardous rip currents. Tornadoes and waterspouts are also possible, adding to the storm's dangers.
