Wildfires burn historic Maui town of Lahaina, prompt evacuations across Hawaii

Wildfires burned across Hawaii after strong winds from Hurricane Dora and dry conditions ignited blazes. Acting Gov.

Josh Green, who is traveling, but Green has been "fully briefed" on the situation, according to a release.
