Local winds maybe 35mph. Rather sheltered at my place.  Hurricane barely made 85mph but that circulation was offshore.  Our two big 14,000 ft mountains are ‘hurricane busters’.  They cannot come ashore.  In a close pass like this one, the mountains scrape the rain circulation off the north side of the storm…. and dump on us.  The lava rock drains well and has established runoff channels.  Overall we get 150 inches of rain annually on this part of the island.
