Hawaiʻi reacts to rare tornado warning on Niʻihau

A rare tornado warning was briefly issued for Niʻihau, at the northern end of the Hawaiian Islands, early Friday as an unusual storm system moved in, but no damage was reported.

The grants — one to University of Hawaiʻi Cancer Center for the new groundbreaking Ho‘ōla Early Phase Clinical Research Center and the other to John A. Burns School of Medicine to upgrade simulation and training resources — reinforce Helmsley’s commitment to strengthening health infrastructure and workforce capacity in Hawaiʻi.

Kauaʻi’s Office of Economic Development is now accepting applications for its prestigious Youth Climate Class, a transformative program beginning in February.

New results — which were made using a variety of ground and space-based telescopes including W. M. Keck Observatory on the Big Island — strengthen the “Hubble tension,” a cosmic disagreement that could point to new physics governing the universe.

Better Buildings & Better Plants partners saved more than $24 billion in energy costs to date, and financial allies extended $41 billion for projects that improve energy performance.

The fiscal year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act includes more than $1.1 billion for infrastructure in Hawai‘i and includes language encouraging the U.S. Army to fully develop and communicate plans for leased training lands — such as those at Pōhakuloa on the Big Island.

Unlocking the mystery of dark matter would help to get a grasp on what most of the universe is actually made of and potentially reveal fundamental new physics that could revolutionize the understanding of how everything works.

With nearly 1 in 3 Hawai‘i families already not able to get enough food, the organizations say the real barrier to healthy eating is affordability, not banning sugary products.
