[macuu222]

Now they say its going to miss the big Island entirely by more than 100 miles. Just maybe a few showers.

...FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE BIG ISLAND THROUGH SATURDAY...

.THE PASSAGE OF TROPICAL DEPRESSION COSME SOUTH OF THE BIG ISLAND
IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE HEAVY RAINFALL WITH HIGHEST AMOUNTS ALONG
THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST FACING SLOPES. THE INITIAL RAINFALL WILL

EARLY SATURDAY. THE RUNOFF FROM THIS HEAVY RAIN MAY PRODUCE FLASH
FLOODING.

Weather update (looking out the window): it's raining.

Whaddaya think, "a few showers" or maybe one very long one? (Hope I don't need to borrow Bill's extra kayak

BTW, did anyone else happen to notice that the number of punaweb posts increases on rainy days? (Like this useless one you're reading.) Maybe it's just my imagination...

Well, if it's raining you either sit by your computer or have sex! It's funny, I just read about a couple in their 70's and they said they have sex three times a week. They both said "There is not much else to do!" I guess they don't live in Puna.

Bringing this forward because Cosme has a sister named Flossie. Tropical storm Flossie has now been upgraded to a Hurricane and it is still far off Mexico's Pacific coast (just as Cosme started). It sounds like it is on a similar track to Cosme on a heading that will take it south of the Hawaiian Islands. Lets hope Flossie is as well behaved as Cosme.

The same links on this post can be used to follow Flossie since she is on the same track as Cosme.

Pulling this forward again since Flossie is getting stronger and closer.
