When did hurricane Iselle arrive last year? Seems like yesterday everytime I drive by lava tree park or the Geothermal power plant. Sure hope Geothermal's hurricane or storm plans can go a bit smoother this time without the evacuation scares or the releasing of toxic gasses or steam? Not looking forward to the power being out again for days or weeks either, if the albesia start to snap, crack, and fall.
This part of the big island can get hit very hard by these types of storms. Whether the storm veers north or slides south at the last minute, puna usually gets plenty of surf, wind, and rain. Kapoho could experience the always dangerous storm surge from this hurricane as well. Thankfully Iselle had great timing and was trying to make landfall during the night. So many were at home in safe rooms and not stuck on our roads coming or going from work. Be prepared and Stay safe.
