Winter Storm Warnings Loom as 110 MPH Winds and Up to 18 Inches of Snow Approach


The National Weather Service offices in two states have issued winter storm warnings, cautioning the public about powerful conditions that are predicted to arrive. The hardest hit area is set to be struck by up to destructive wind gusts and heavy snow, making travel "difficult to impossible."

Where 110 MPH Wind Gusts and 18 Inches of Snow Are Expected to Arrive

In the afternoon of March 12, 2026, the National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning for Hawaii's Big Island summit areas above 12,000 feet. It described the harrowing conditions that were expected to arrive from the time the warning was issued until 6 p.m. local time on Saturday, March 14.

According to the government agency's meteorologists, the storm system was expected to bring wind gusts that could reach as high as 110 mph. Additionally, between 12 and 18 inches of snow is expected to accumulate before the warning ends. 

While no one lives there permanently, the summits see steady activity from scientists who conduct research and tourists who take guided commercial tours to enjoy the view. In fact, a 2024 report from the University of Hawaii stated that 36,890 visitors reached the summit via one of the tours that year alone. People also regularly travel to the affected summits for the Kamaʻāina Observatory Experience. All of that activity will likely grind to a halt during this storm system due to the severity of the storms, which the warning states will make travel hazardous. See more..

How Vinicius Jr became Real Madrid’s man for the Champions League knockout rounds

“He is the most decisive player in the world.” That was Carlo Ancelotti’s verdict on Vinicius Junior in February 2023 after he dismantled Liverpool at Anfield in the Champions League round of 16. With Real Madrid 2-0 down inside 14 minutes, Vinicius Jr curled home from the left side of the box before unwittingly deflecting a poor Alisson clearance into the net to claw them level by half-time. The Brazil international added an assist midway through the second half, measuring his run before setting up Karim Benzema on the break to give Madrid a 5-2 win. A player who has faced adversity throughout his career, it is no surprise that Vinicius Jr has often thrived under the bright European midweek lights in the second half of the season.

Mar 14, 2026; Los Angeles, California, USA; Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic (77) controls the ball while under pressure from Denver Nuggets guard Christian Braun (0) during the first half at Crypto.com Arena. William Liang-Imagn Images Another crushing loss for the Denver Nuggets. After the Los Angeles Lakers took as much as a 17-point lead, the Nuggets stormed back to force overtime. However, after an ugly overtime period with plenty of missed shots, Lakers superstar Luka Doncic took matters into his own hands. In a tie game, Doncic knocked down the game-winning mid-range shot with just 0.5 seconds remaining. It was malpractice to leave Spencer Jones on an island with Doncic with the game on the line, as the six-time All-Star will win that battle nine times out of ten. Here are a few instant takeaways from Denver's crushing loss on Saturday night:         ...

Bam Adebayo 83 Points — Fans Call NBA a Joke; Could Wizards Face Investigation for Tanking?

Miami Heat centre Bam Adebayo scored 83 points, the second‑highest total in NBA history, in a 150‑129 win over the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night, igniting intense discussion about the nature of the performance and the Wizards' defensive approach. Adebayo's 83‑point effort overtook Kobe Bryant's 81‑point game from 2006, trailing only Wilt Chamberlain's 100‑point masterpiece in 1962. His stat line included 20 of 43 from the field, 7 of 22 from three‑point range and an astounding 36 of 43 at the free‑throw line, breaking single‑game NBA records for both free throws made and attempted. The performance marked a career‑night for Adebayo, who entered Tuesday averaging under five free throw attempts per game before erupting for a historic scoring output.                                                          ...
