Loading ...Skies clouding up and tradewinds from the NE intensify tonight as hurricane Hector approaches. This is a major hurricane, Cat 4, and tropical storm warnings are posted for the entire Big Island of Hawaii. We expect passage about 150 miles south in about 18 hours from this post…. 2pm Wed. local time.
We expect wind and lots of rain from the north quadrant of the storm as it passes. This island has a couple 14,000 ft tall ‘mauna’ barricades that scrape waterfalls out of passing tropical storms. But we’ve been through this before. Cleaned out the gutters today and will shelter at the ranch. Drainage is good.
Dark skies tonight. I miss my red volcano clouds.
