Jason Momoa was forced to evacuate the area where his family was staying on Oahu after a massive storm hit Hawaii, causing the worst flooding the island has seen in 20 years. The “Aquaman” star took to Instagram to reveal that he and his family fled Oahu’s North Shore on Friday after losing power, and floodwater forced mass evacuations near the Wahiawa Dam, which was under imminent threat of collapse. “We’re safe for now but there’s a lot of people who weren’t, so sending all of our love,” said Momoa in a video on his Instagram stories. “The conditions on the North Shore are knarly.” The actor also said the dangerous weather forced him to cancel a music event planned for the weekend and shared footage of flooding near his father’s home, calling the destruction ‘crazy’ and asking his followers to stay safe. Momoa, who was born in Honolulu, later posted on Instagram that the past weeks had been “heavy” for his home state.
