According to Young Brothers, it hopes a Hilo-bound barge which has been riding out Tropical Storm Iselle at sea, will be allowed to enter the Port of Hilo at about 5 p.m. today.

According to a written statement from the shipping company, if port authorities allow the barge to dock, crews will unload the barge tonight and cargo will be available Saturday morning.

Once the company confirms the time that the barge will be allowed into the harbor and when unloading can begin, its staff will contact customers to provide a specific time when cargo will be available on Saturday.

Updated information will be sent via e-mail and Young Brothers encourages its customers to visit www.youngbrothershawaii.com for updates throughout the day, the company said.
