AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Hurricane Response: Hurricane Lala is battering Hawaiʻi Island with heavy rain, high winds and flooding as Hawaiian Electric crews assess damage and restore power; as of late morning Saturday, about 18,700 customers were without power on the Big Island, with outages tied to downed lines from trees and debris, while Maui County also reported thousands affected and HECO warned restoration could take overnight as conditions worsen. Storm Preparedness & Impacts: The National Hurricane Center upgraded Lala to Category 1 as it nears the Big Island, prompting road closures, airport shutdowns/securements, shelter use and “essential needs only” water guidance. Air Travel Disruption: Southwest said it’s dealing with hundreds of flight disruptions across Hawaiʻi and is offering rebooking or refunds for travelers at multiple airports through the weekend. Insurance & Consumer Guidance: Zephyr Insurance began hurricane coverage outreach for Hawaiʻi Island policyholders, urging residents to review what their policies cover—especially separating wind damage from flooding. Local Business Readiness: Big Island residents and vendors are boarding up, stocking up and closing early, including Hilo Farmers Market vendors preparing for the storm’s second hit. Cyber/Market Oversight: A House inquiry is demanding answers from major airlines, including Hawaiian, on whether AI and consumer data influence the fares people see.
