Radio Script for Maui TV News on KAOI Radio - February 16, 2010

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER, I'M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS.

THE SOUTH PACIFIC IS NOWHERE NEAR AS CALM, BEAUTIFUL OR AS PEACEFUL AS HAWAIIAN WATERS TODAY. TROPICAL CYCLONE RENE CAUSED EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE PHONE SYSTEM IN TONGA, BUT SO FAR - NO REPORTS OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATHS. AMERICAN SAMOA WAS SPARED THE CYCLONE'S WRATH - AND GOT A BIT OF GOOD NEWS TODAY. CASES OF DENGUE FEVER IN AMERICAN SAMOA WERE DOWN IN 2009 BY 20 PERCENT. THAT'S PARTICULARLY GOOD NEWS IN LIGHT OF THE VOLUMES OF RESIDENTS LEFT HOMELESS AFTER THE SEPTEMBER TSUNAMI.

MEANWHILE, IF YOU FEEL GOOD ABOUT LIVING IN THE ALOHA STATE, WELCOME HOME. HAWAII RECLAIMED THE NUMBER ONE SPOT AS THE STATE WITH THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF RESIDENTS WHO FELT A STATE OF WELL-BEING. AFTER SEVERAL YEARS ON THE TOP, HAWAII WAS BRIEFLY DETHRONED BY UTAH IN 2008.

ISLAND WEATHER, PRETTY CLOSE TO PERFECT. TONIGHT, PARTLY CLOUDY WITH ISOLATED SHOWERS AND COOL WITH LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S. TOMORROW, MOSTLY SUNNY WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 80S.

FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER FOR MAUI TV NEWS, I'M JEFF KING.
