I am sure that the area that some kupuna grew up in may not have experienced all of what the island has to offer, but I do know that kupuna in 1871 reported on a major storm that created damage that could only equate to a major hurricane direct hit to our island and Maui, in many different Hawaiian Language newspapers, that are only now being re-visited in the Nupepa Project....
If the kupuna that one was raised with were unaware of these reports, they would have much differing ideas.... but to hold onto these ideas when reading a thread that has links to this research, and shows that those views are no longer valid, is maddening to those of us that have worked on the Nupepa Project... and could be a deadly assumption when dealing with a storm like Lane!
