Blessed weather? Beginning of drought?

[ElysianWort]

The local news has been saying showers for us for weeks now with all the storms moving our way from the north and we have had basically nil in Puna till Thursday's downpours.

So Kaliana when you posted this: but is it really so difficult to forecast a major storm that would bring us 5" (and counting) today?
I chuckled a bit.

It is just exemplary of our local meteorologists being unable to accurately predict weather for our windward side of the big island. Or at least for my lifetime here, they have all been pretty $h*tty at doing so.
