EARLIER COVERAGE

The confirmed death toll is still at 115 as authorities have so far searched 99% of the Lahaina devastation area for human remains.

Maui County officials this morning report the Olinda fire remains 85% contained with an estimated 1,081 acres burned; the Kula fire is now at 90% contained with an estimated 202 acres burned; and the Lahaina fire remains 90% contained with an estimated 2,170 acres burned.

“The Maui Fire Department (MFD) advises the public that extinguishing the Upcountry fires may take an extended period of time given the large burn area and the nature of the rural terrain. Although containment percentages have not changed over recent days, MFD continues to reassure the public there are no active threats among the three ongoing fires,” according to an emailed statement.
