OK, I am now over the rain. Ready for sun.
#48
After you have been here a while, you get used to the weather here....we moved in '05, December was a month long drought (wildfires were even in HPP...it was BAD....but sunny ;~) then came March of '06.... 40 days of rain, with one of the heaviest 24 hour rainfalls, over 1" per hour for the full day....HORRENDOUS!

Those extremes were 4 months apart..and the rain was nowhere near the 2000 floods....

Point? we have gotten used to it, have rain visors on the cart, have noticed the homes in Hilo that have little rainfall features only when there is a heavy rain (yes, they are intentional) love when the mall parking lot waterfall is ripping (this is a feature to break the energy of the water flowing into the retention basin... you know you have seen a really good rain when that basin is full of water....

Did anyone see the glorious sun today? there was a beautiful break in the clouds - blue skies, and our street even started to steam dry... then the rain came back!
