What the National Weather Service wrote

A large ironwood tree fell onto a vehicle on Kamehameha Highway near Kahana Bay. Two individuals were injured.

The wider storm

Gusty trade winds helped keep showers moving as an upper trough induced downpours from the Big Island to Oahu. The precipitation caused ponding on roadways, and small stream and drainage ditch flooding. This is a continuation of an episode from the end of February. No significant property damage or injuries relating to the heavy rain were reported in March, though two individual hikers lost their lives earlier in the episode in late February.
