Hurricane Lane now Category 5

Posted by Maya @ 3:15 on August 22, 2018  

Big Island has hurricane warning posted.  This thing will dump enough water to sink the islands.  They expected weakening by now.  Instead it is strengthened.

“Noah!   Build me an Ark!”

Lines at the gas pumps tonight.  I found 5-gal gas cans at local Ace hardware at outrageous prices, but picked up a couple for the generator.  It has a 5 gal tank and will run 10 hours at half load.  I should be OK for a couple days if we lose power.  Gas station 4 miles up the road… unless trees are down on road.  I’m in the best position here at the eastern tip, but still expecting mega-rain.  They are saying possibly 20 inches rainfall.  South shores could get 25-30 ft surf.

Welcome to disaster islands…. glub…glub… splash…
