- Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻo Tropical Storm Henri i kahi ʻino.
- Ua hoʻopuka ʻia nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo nui ma ka ʻĀkau hikina o ʻAmelika.

Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia ʻo Tropical Storm Henri i kēia lā i kahi pae makani e US National Hurricane Center. Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻia ʻo Henri mai kahi ʻinoʻino i kahi ʻino i ke kakahiaka Pōʻaono, a e manaʻo ʻia e pae i ka Lāpule.
Ua hoʻopuka ʻia nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo nui ma ka ʻĀkau hikina o ʻAmelika, ʻoiai ʻo Hurricane Henri e hele ana ma ke komohana ʻākau ma ka ʻĀkelanika.
Me ka wikiwiki o ka makani ma kahi o 75mph i kēia manawa, manaʻo ʻia e kuʻi ʻo Henri i Long Island a i ʻole ka hema o ʻEnelani ʻEnelani i ka lā ʻapōpō.
Inā pa i Long Island, ʻo ia ka makani ʻino mua i kū ma laila mai Gloria ma 1985. Inā pae i New England, ʻo ia ka makani ʻino mua i hana pēlā mai Bob i 1991, i luku ʻia 15 mau kānaka a pila ʻoi aku ma mua o $ 1.5 biliona i nā pohō.
Ke lawe nei ʻo Henri i ka wikiwiki o ka makani ma kahi o 75mph (120kph) i ka US, a manaʻo ʻia e hoʻoikaika i ka wā e kokoke ana i ka ʻāina. Ua hoʻopuka ʻia nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo a ka ʻino mai New York a Massachusetts. Ua aʻoaʻo aku nā kiaʻāina i kēia mau mokuʻāina, a me Connecticut a me Rhode Island, e pili ana i ka huakaʻi kūpono ʻole. Ua kāhea aku ʻo Connecticut lāua ʻo Massachusetts i nā lālā o ka National Guard e hana i ka hana hoʻomākaukau no ka hōʻea ʻana mai o Henri.
Kuhi ʻia ka ua nui, me ka National Hurricane Center ke ao a i 10 ʻīniha o ka ua i kekahi mau wahi. "ʻO ka ua nui mai Henri mai ka hopena o ka nui o ke kahe, kaona, a me nā kahawai liʻiliʻi," i ʻōlelo ai ke kikowaena, me ka ʻōlelo ʻana "he puahiohio a ʻelua paha" i New England ma ka Lāpule.
Ua hoʻokahe ʻia ʻo New England ma hope o kekahi mau pule o ka ua nui. ʻOihana Hoʻolālā Oihana Hoʻolū Kūʻē Oihana (FEMA) Ua ʻōlelo ʻo luna Deanne Criswell i ka Pōʻaono ʻo kēia mau kumu wai i hiki ai iā Henri ke huki maʻalahi i nā kumu lāʻau a me nā aho uila, a hiki i nā lā o ka outages.
"E ʻike ana mākou i ka pio ʻana o ka uila, e ʻike mākou i nā lāʻau i lalo, a ʻoiai ma hope o ka hala ʻana o ka ʻino, aia ka makaʻu o nā lāʻau e hina ana a me nā lālā i waho," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia.
