Jason Momoa Forced to Flee Home Amid Flash Flood in Hawaii

Jason Momoa was one of several who had to flee their homes amid flash flooding in Hawaii. The actor spoke out about the storm on social media, sharing support for locals affected.

The Hollywood actor said they lost power when flooding hit O'ahu's North Shore.

"I got my family with me. We got out of the North Shore ... our power went off," said Momoa. "We're safe for now, but there's a lot of people who weren't, so we're sending all our love. The North Shore is pretty gnarly right now. So hopefully everyone's safe and getting out. Stay safe out there."

Momoa is far from the only one having to evacuate. The O'ahu Department of Emergency Management urged people to evacuate. More than a hudred people had to be rescued from flooding. Damages may exceed more than a billion. "This is going to have a very serious consequence for us as a state," Gov. Josh Green said.

Momoa is a native of Hawaii. He documented the storm on social media as it hit the island. He also went to a local restaurant chain called Zippy to help aid others in the community affected. Momoa was supposed to perform with his band over the weekend. But due to the storm, they rescheduled the show.

"These past weeks have been heavy. The storms, the flooding, the constant rain across O?ahu have affected so many of our people, especially those already facing hardship," Momoa wrote his caption. "Seeing families displaced, communities struggling, and our unhoused neighbors hit the hardest."

"We spent time on the west side, just trying to show love, bring some food, and remind our community that we see you, we stand with you, and you're not alone," he continued.

He also added as well,  "That's what aloha is. It's showing up for each other when it matters most."
