Hawaii wildfires to cause second-largest total insured loss in state’s history – KCC

The fast-moving inferno, which started earlier this week, ravaged the historic resort town of Lahaina that was once the capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom. The impact of the fire would be second only to the Hurricane Iniki, which hit Hawaii in 1992, based on today's property value, KCC said in a note on Friday. Search teams on Maui on Friday would comb through the charred ruins of Lahaina looking for more victims of the wildfire, with officials expecting the death toll of 55 to rise.
