CECAA850 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I hope @oldtimer is stateside for this one. It's a very well developed storm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windashine Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Incredible Situation, indeed, to be anywhere, but on an island, nowhere out of harms way.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyBob Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Let's hope it doesn't do an Iniki... I was on Kauai during that one. Just have to hunker down and hope for the best. And afterward... you can't, simply, drive away... and find "civilization".. My first shower, after Iniki, was at a beach shower. No electricity - no water, unless you had gravity feed.

Moderators dtel Posted August 22, 2018 Moderators Share Posted August 22, 2018 Looks like Kauai and whatever that little island is could be in trouble if it stays on track ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyBob Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 ... in time for clean up, if needed. let's hope not. Kauai got wasted by Iniki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I was there for that, on Oahu. Storm was supposed to hit Oahu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted August 23, 2018 Moderators Share Posted August 23, 2018 If it stays on track it probably won't be so bad except for alot of rain and some wind. A slightly different track and it would have been bad for all the islands, hope it makes that curve as expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1290 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Just looks totally nasty for the entire area. Local kid is sittin on a ship @ Pearl... Ugh. Would be rough ride I'm sure but maybe not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillyBob Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 and they will still be on that section of porch... when it lands a half mile away... this looks worse than Iniki. Raining itself out... Slowing/stalled.. We didn't get flooding. Just big wind... and 5 or 6 inches of rain y'all be safe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
