FROM THE VISIONARY RADIO NEWS CENTER I’M JEFF KING WITH MAUI TV NEWS. A BUSY DAY IN THE SHIPPING BUSINESS. EFFECTIVE TODAY, YOUNG BROTHERS IS INCREASING OVERALL SHIPPING RATES BY FIVE-POINT-FIVE PERCENT. IT'S THEIR FOURTH RATE INCREASE IN FOUR YEARS AND IT COMES ON THE SAME DAY THAT MATSON NAVIGATION ANNOUNCES THEIR FOURTH FUEL SURCHARGE JUMP OF THIS YEAR. THE NEW RATE IS 42 AND A QUARTER PERCENT - THEIR HIGHEST EVER. MATSON'S FUEL SURCHARGE THIS TIME LAST YEAR WAS 24 PER CENT. IF YOU'RE A REALLY LIGHT SLEEPER, YOU MIGHT HAVE FELT THE EARTHQUAKE EARLY THIS MORNING. AT AROUND 1-25 A.M., A THREE-POINT-TWO EARTHQUAKE RUMBLED ABOUT 9 MILES BELOW THE SURFACE OF THE OCEAN ABOUT 20 MILES NORTHWEST OF HAWI ON THE BIG ISLAND. THERE WERE NO REPORTS OF INJURIES OR DAMAGE - AND NO TSUNAMI WAS GENERATED. ISLAND WEATHER, TONIGHT, SOME ISOLATED SHOWERS WITH A LOW IN THE UPPER 60S. MOSTLY SUNNY TOMORROW WITH HIGHS IN THE LOWER 90S.
