Crazy photos!! Wow! I know Central and South Maui is still under a "boil water" order as a precaution.

Yup! They had that on the news several times today. Very worrisome

Here is the report about the tornados over Lanikai

Got back from the AM Charter........ Vis was good at Seatiger. So good in fact we did it twice! Had a nice sun break which happened to correspond with our surface interval but a whole lot of gray on the horizon:

Aloha Gabe and thanks for chiming in. Thank goodness the light side of the Island is good! The dark side...well, it's still dark

We will have to tie everything down. Weather man says we will be getting 50 miles an hour winds...

 

[scottitheduck]

Really? I see only reports of 15-20 with gusts up to 25?

Guy from KGMB said 50 in the last interruption - will have to watch the next news to see what's up

 

[justleesa]

ok, Guy said it again, 50mph winds

The watershed in the West Maui mountains got over 16" of rain since March 2! And golf ball sized hail in E. Maui...that's crazy!

 

[justleesa]

OK, it didn't get as bad as forecasted yesterday and the radar doesn't show much precipitation left in the area. Hope that's it for now!

Now, how's the vis out there?
