Hurricane Lala began its path toward Hawaii’s Big Island on Saturday,
though the possibility of a direct hit, which would be the first in 155 years, was uncertain.
In its latest forecast discussion, National Hurricane Center meteorologists said the hurricane is displaying a possible new track,
making it “unclear if Lala will actually make a landfall on the Big Island.”
The tropical cyclone is unleashing what could be life-threatening rain on the Big Island
as it…

Lala strengthens into a hurricane and bears down on Hawaii’s Big Island with heavy rain
Tropical Storm Lala was already whipping and soaking Hawaii’s Big Island early Saturday, and was expected to strengthen into a hurricane as it approaches land.
