Aloha! It's a very wet day on Kauai! We have had about 6 inches of rain in the last 24 hours here in Kilauea and we are among the lucky ones. Parts of the island are getting hit a lot worse than us. Over by Ke'e beach they have had 13 inches and a lot of the south shore has had more than 9. The NOAA weather site is pretty cool. It will keep you up to date on any weather warnings in all 50 states. At the moment both Kauai and Oahu are under a flashflood warning. There is also a place that will give you the rainfall amount and you can even see the latest radar and satellite images. The forecast is calling for better weather tomorrow. Hope they are right as we need a little sun to dry us out! The ground is really saturated and we are getting a lot of mud washing into the ocean right now. We have a ring about a 1/4 mile wide of the muddiest water you can imagine surrounding the island. PS The Hanalei bridge has been closed almost the entire day. If anyone staying in Hanalei, Ha'ena or any place north of that had to leave today they are just SOL as the bridge is the only way in or out!
