Power is back in Kapa'a. Almost exactly 48 hours. I'm impressed. I know a lot of places on the island are still out but they're working fast.

I think Kauai Island Utility Co-op may have under-promised and over-delivered.

Our utility: We restored power to 6,000 customers today. We have no estimates for when specific areas will be restored.

The comments section: When will MY house get power???

I wonder...if I met these people, would they seem normal, or would they be insufferable numpties in person too?

As Cat 2 Hurricane #Lowell was passing just west of Ni'ihau and Kaua'i on 08 September, it looks as though the 2.70 inches of Precipitable Water on the 0600 UTC Lihue sounding may have been a record max PW for that site? See cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl... #HIwx

Lele is completely plussed about the lack of electricity; she lives a simple life and only needs electricity for her water fountain. Somehow she is making do.

Either we've gone back to beasts of burden on Kaua'i or a water buffalo is some kind of vehicle.

Notice from Dept. of Water:

" Haena-Wainiha - Water buffalo providing potable (drinking) water is dispatched to Hanalei Colony Resort, located at 5-7130 Kuhio Highway"
