What we don't know

Open questions are tracked here until evidence answers them. The Truism never fills a gap with an assumption.

  • The exact volume of rainfall and potential for flash flooding across different islands.
  • The full extent of physical damage across the islands and when power will be fully restored.
  • Whether Hurricane Lowell made landfall on Kauai or only produced indirect impacts there.
  • Where and when hurricane-force winds were recorded, and whether they were sustained winds or gusts.
  • Whether the approximately 30,000 figure refers to residents, customers, or outage accounts, and when it was measured.
  • The specific type and effective period of the warning for Kauai and Niihau.
