You know, the lava fountains we have every couple of weeks is exciting, sometimes you get earthquakes or tsunami watches. We get snow on Mauna Kea (probably lots today) and then there is the possibility of a bit of rain.
We have had a Kona Low (kinda a cyclone) here in Hawaii the past few days. How bad can it be? There is a dam on Oahu that may fail and people have been told to pack a “GO BAG”. We have had wind up to 50 MPH gusts or higher at my house, the Kona airport shut down for a while. Up on Mauna Kea there is the storm warning and 125 MPH gusts. As for the rain, so far today (as of 9:30 pm) just about 11 inches. That would not be so bad, but the storm has been going for days and expected to last at least through tomorrow. Now if we could just get the heat of the lava to dry things out.
