Hawaii has the exact same hurricane season as Florida. August through October is when wind, rain, surf, etc picks up. Hurricane Dora was just close enough to make it super windy. The shitty power lines did the rest.
...I read Hawaii is closing its fossil fuel generating plants, I was asking what will be the method of generating electricity once this policy is fully implemented...
Solar, wind, and water turbines. Probably in that order. There are water energy companies already here just not mainstream. Wind turbines are very controversial here but HECO puts them up anyway and usually generates a protest. Solar/PV is the fastest growing and most reasonable. 2 panels for your water heater are required now per house.
I was there only once, 50 years ago, and I could still be with my friends in Hana, but it was just too much like lying down in the poppy fields (Wizard of Oz) to be there. And now Lahaina is much bigger, but I bet fireproof construction has the same priority as other boring official stuff.
Hawaii has been a haven for the far left since achieving statehood in 59. Any member of their government is going to stick to narrative and do what is necessary to help it along.

..where does the electricity come from in Hawaii?
We have an old grid here. There is so much wind and sun here to create micro-grids but still tons of people depend on the power lines.

...indeed...
They should have assigned the guy responsible for the "false missile alarm" from few years ago!
...perhaps they did...

So global warming, er uhh climate change? (I can't even keep up anymore), causes spontaneous combustion. Got it.
Did think it was possible for anyone to be 'stupider' than Crazy Mazie, yet here we are.
...the reason ignorance will triumph...
...is because there is a limit to intelligence...
