Tropical Storm Hone poses a wildfire risk to Hawaii, drawing on memories of last year's deadly Maui fires, with top winds of 65 mph and ongoing drought conditions.
The National Weather Service is issuing a red flag fire warning due to warm temperatures, low humidity, and stronger winds, signaling heightened fire dangers across the islands.
Local resident Calvin Endo recalls last year's deadly fires and emphasizes the importance of vigilance, stating that just "fire and wind" could lead to another catastrophe.
Meteorologist Derek Wroe notes that while Hone poses significant fire dangers, it's not expected to reach the catastrophic scale of last year's Maui wildfires.
