Anyone else ready to make their best guesses for Madeline? Please, as always, no wagering:
I think Madeline will be a serious storm for Puna, approaching the intensity of Iselle, but with slightly lower wind speeds, perhaps 5-10 mph less. Highest winds for Puna will be Wednesday afternoon, perhaps between 1 PM & 5 PM??
Power will go out Wednesday afternoon between 2-3 PM (in HPP).
Rainfall? Buckets and buckets. Catchments will be overflowing.
Road closures? I won't touch that one.
- Be pleasant to inefficient workers; give them undeserved promotions. - Work slowly. - Refer all matters to committees for "further study and consideration. - Hold conferences. - Make travel as inconvenient as possible. - Haggle over precise wordings of communications. - Advocate “caution.” Be “reasonable” and avoid haste.
