Uragan Lane sve bliži Havajima
Steven Goldstein iz Nacionalne uprave za okeane i atmosferu izjavio je na konferenciji za novinare da udari vjetra dostižu 260 kilometara na sat.
“Uragan je trenutno udaljen od Honolulua oko 500 kilometara i očekuje se da će udariti na Veliki otok prije nego prođe kroz Maui i Oahu”, napomenuo je Goldstein.

Goldstein je naglasio na nije potreban direktan udar kako bi se osjetila prava snaga ove oluje, prenosi AP.
We are being evacuated. The neighborhood is too dangerous as the water from the Wailuku River keeps rising. Fire, police and county officials want us to move about 100 feet down the hill. There are still people stranded in homes. #HurricaneLane pic.twitter.com/93WqBeTI2f

Padavine koje se očekuju, prema ocjenama stručnjaka, mogle bi izazvati značajne poplave, opasne talase visoke i do šest metara i olujne udare duplo jače od uobičajenih.

Big impacts expected on the Hawaiian Islands over the next few days as #HurricaneLane bears down. It was upgraded to a dangerous Cat 5 hurricane this morning with wind speeds of 160mph. Looking very ominous from space... pic.twitter.com/M7sSBk8Qeu
