Hawaii flood damage could top $1 billion as cleanup begins
Hawaii residents and National Guard troops are clearing debris following the state's most devastating flooding in over 20 years. Officials estimate damages could exceed $1 billion after more than 5,500 people were placed under evacuation orders. Gov. Josh Green is seeking federal emergency funding as concerns grow over a 120-year-old dam north of Honolulu. While many return home to assess the tragedy, additional rain on Oahu triggered a new round of flooding Monday.
