Here is a rundown of the last two hurricanes to hit the Hawaiian Islands in recorded history from Hawaii News Now:
- Hurricane Iniki (1992): This category four hurricane was the most devastating hurricane to hit Hawaii. Borne from El Nino, Iniki traveled on a west-northwest course and continued to strengthen. On September 11, the eye of the hurricane passed directly over Kauai, devastating the island. It caused over $1.8 billion in damage and was responsible for six deaths.
- Hurricane Iwa (1982): At the time, this category one hurricane was the most damaging to hit Hawaii. It passed just west of Kauai, causing severe property damage, minor physical injuries, and one death. Up to $250 million dollars in damage was created.
