The death toll from the horrific wildfire that devastated a historic tourist town in Hawaii has reached at least 67, making it the deadliest disaster to hit the islands since they became a U.S. state.

Officials noted that search teams, using dogs trained to find bodies, may discover more victims of the fires that consumed over a thousand buildings and displaced thousands, which likely requires many years and billions of dollars for reconstruction.

Three days after the disaster, it remains unclear whether some residents received any warnings before the flames engulfed their homes. The island has sirens to warn of natural disasters and other threats, but they apparently did not sound during the fire.

Hawaii Governor Josh Green told CNN, "I have directed a comprehensive review this morning to determine exactly what happened and when it happened," referring to the sirens. He described it as "the worst natural disaster in Hawaii's history."
