Honolulu firefighters are working to contain a growing brush fire that has scorched roughly 375 acres in Wahiawa.
One driver reported seeing thick smoke in the area.
“I was coming down Kaukonahua Road and it was just completely smoke. You could see it coming from Wahiawa. But as you got further down, you could see it -- like plumes of smoke coming up,” Cora Pierce said as she watched the smoke billow.
HFD said windy conditions, accessibility and steep terrain have been major challenges.
