Oops. The Waimea River takes another prisoner. |
The rain can come up quickly, making people scurry off the beach. Mt. Waialeale, the inactive volcano that anchors Kauai, is one of the wettest places on earth. The eighth wettest, actually, with some 450 inches of rain annually. And the rain is very localized. The river can come up suddenly and unexpectedly. It floods the Cassel's farm almost annually. And vehicles trying to get across to Makaweli Valley can get surprised. Like this one yesterday. I used to fairly routinely drive cars across there, but the last time was probably 15 years ago.

People head for shelter. Poultry not so much. |

Rain fell as I sat down to my second Rotary Club meeting. |
