Perhaps the islands will turn over like Guam.

A friend of mine lives on Oahu. She has stocked up but is more concerned about the water damage and power loss. She has dogs but has plenty of food for them too. Her landlady is the opposite. She is flying by the seat of her pants. I guess she believes my friend should just be generous. smh
Keeping all in my prayers.

I’m in Honolulu right now, bars and some restaurants are closing early tonight, many schools and busses are closed tomorrow. There’s been a run on bottled water. Gas stations have long lines, kinda reminds me of MA when the media scares everyone about an impending nor’easter.

Lots of trucks and cars carrying plywood and sandbags, but I haven’t seen anything boarded up yet on this island.

8:30pm in Hilo. Lots of rain, but it looks like that will be the extent of this storm for the Big Island.

As per usual, the hurricanes roll around the south, pushed off by winds coming down from our twin peaks Mauna Kea & Mauna Loa.

I thought they were typhoons out in the Pacific that far.

This immense rain fall should make Hawaii’s sugar cane crop to become a monster harvest.

In the Pacific, they’re called “typhoon”.

Interesting. They just passed a “you must stay gay” law. God DOES intervene through nature.

Same with California wildfires.

Maybe the heavy rain from the hurricane will extinguish the volcano and solve that problem.

Two hours ago.

And many others are leaving. Long lines were seen at airports in Honolulu as hundreds of people were trying to catch flights out of the islands before the storm comes closer.
The 15 airports throughout the state will remain open as long they don’t suffer damage to their infrastructure or the debris “makes flight operations unsafe,” the Hawaii Department of Transportation said in a statement.

Maybe that dumbshit Judge in Hawaii can order an injunction.

260 miles south of Kailua-Kona

Roughly the distance of Miami to Daytona - or Boston to Trenton.

385 miles south-southeast of Honolulu

Or a bit closer than Chicago to Memphis.

In other words, not really very close.
