    Some people try to say the sirens are for tsunamis/hurricanes and using them would potentially have made people panic and run in-land.

    I also heard because of all the invasive agriculture that made the fires much worse due to old growth that used to previously feed cattle.

    But do your own research to verify those. I dont live in Hawaii
