"Neighbor isles
also experience
storm's full effect

Problems include electrical
failures, choppy harbor waters
and blown-off roofs

Thousands lose electricity, roads to Haleiwa are blocked

Nine sites close for at least part of yesterday, with several staying
closed today

High winds on Maui yesterday led to a forest fire in Olinda, blew the roof
off a house in Haiku and pushed ashore several vessels from Lahaina to
Kaanapali.

High winds knocked out power to more than 10,000 customers, threatened to
damage roofs and forced the closure of some parks on the Big Island.

At the summit of Mauna Kea, observatories recorded winds of 65 mph, said
Mauna Kea services manager Ron Koehler. He closed the summit road at the
13,000-foot level at 2 p.m.

Wind gusts were clocked at 40 mph with gusts higher than 60 mph at Lihue
Airport, and 3 inches of rain was recorded in Kokee at the top of Waimea
Canyon.

Numerous businesses -- including Wal-Mart in Hanamaulu -- and several
government agencies told employees to stay home. Many delivery services
kept their drivers off the roads, and that, in turn, caused numerous
restaurants to close."
