"WATCH" status means you should GET READY and LISTEN to your radio or television for further instructions. What is meant by a "HURRICANE WARNING" or "TSUNAMI WARNING"? A "WARNING" is an official announcement that hazardous, life-threatening conditions are about to occur or are occurring. "WARNING" status means you should TAKE ACTION. A hurricane "WARNING" means that hurricane conditions can be expected within 24 hours. A tsunami "WARNING" means that a tsunami has been generated: Leave coastal areas.

  • Communications Status Report for Areas Impacted by Tropical Depression Lane August 26, 2018
    Communications Status Report for Areas Impacted by Tropical Depression Lane August 26, 2018 The following is a report on the status of communications services in geographic areas impacted by Tropical Depression Lane as of August 26, 2018 by 1:30 PM EDT. (The hurricane has been further downgraded to a tropical depression.) This report incorporates network outage data submitted by communications providers to the Federal Communications Commission’s Disaster Information Reporting System (DIRS). DIRS is currently activated for all counties in Hawaii. Note that the operational status of communications services during a disaster may evolve rapidly, and this report represents a snapshot in time. Thus far, however, it appears as though Tropical Depression Lane has had minimal effect on communications. For example, 99.4% of the cell sites in Hawaii remain operational. Counties of interest for this DIRS activation (the “disaster area”) include all five counties in the State of Hawaii: • Hawaii • Honolulu • Kalawao • Kauai • Maui 911 Services The Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau (PSHSB) learns the status of each Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) through the filings of 911 Service Providers in DIRS, reporting to the FCC’s Public Safety Support Center (PSSC), coordination with state 911 Administrators, and, if necessary, from individual PSAPs. Thirteen PSAPs in Hawaii are currently functioning normally according to the primary service provider. The PSAP at Maui County Police is reported as being rerouted without ALI. This reroute is not due to the storm but is due to renovations at the site started prior to the hurricane. Wireless Services The following section describes the status of wireless communications services and restoration in the disaster area, including the percentage of cell sites out of service for each county.

  • Disaster Preparedness for Maui County: a Citizen's Guide
    DISASTER PREPAREDNESS FOR MAUI COUNTY: A CITIZEN'S GUIDE GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THIS GUIDE: This guide to the County's response to a natural disaster, such as a hurricane, has been produced to inform the public about how to prepare for a natural disaster, and how to cope with the aftermath of such a disaster. An informed public is the key to the effective functioning of our Civil Defense system. You must be able to take care of yourself and your family in times of emergency, since government will not be able to assist everyone. This guide should be used in conjunction with the information found in the Civil Defense section of your phone book. Read this guide and that section and make your plans before an emergency occurs. Preparation for a disaster is the most important thing you can do for you and your family. This guide will help you to prepare, but no guide will prepare you for every circumstance. The key is to anticipate the problems you may face - be prepared for the unexpected! Do not wait for instructions to take necessary actions. PART 1. PREPARING FOR A DISASTER What provisions should I stock in my house in case a natural disaster strikes? A major disaster may interrupt water, electricity, telephone, and gas services. Normal household activities such as cooking and bathing may be disrupted. Stores may be inaccessible or closed. A home survival kit and an emergency food and water supply are essential. You should have an evacuation kit in case you have to leave your home.
