    Why is Lane being called a Hurricane? I thought tropical storms in the Pacific were termed Typhoons.

    Whatever it is called, even 100 mph winds accompanied by torrents of water will be a challenge and hope all stay safe.

    We were on the Big Island just after a major storm literally washed away many of the beaches and ocean debris and tree limbs blocked traffic on the coastal roads. Then some years later we were on Kauai during one of its two epic storms of recent memory and the hotel's beach houses where we could have stayed were completely demolished. Fortunately we had booked elsewhere but still witnessed the aftermath of nature's wrath.

    Generally, a Typhoon is a Hurricane west of the Date Line.

    All quiet on the east side of Oahu. No real wind or rain yet. Plenty cloudy tho. I expect it to get much worse.

    Dead people tell interesting tales.
  • SurfinxHISurfinxHI Posts: 2,509 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Renman seems to be trying to wait this one out....:)

    My girls got off island last night.....when I got back to island. I think they were on to something!

    Everyone in Hawaii please stay safe.

    I have already seen photos of people frolicking in the angry surf. Please don't be one of those people who feels a need to go surfing during a storm.

    If it is not this brand, try this brand as you will find it stimulating .....

  • ParadisefoundParadisefound Posts: 8,588 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I like the ALL - ONE magic soap it promotes @ErrorsOnCoins ;)

  • crazyhounddogcrazyhounddog Posts: 14,004 ✭✭✭✭✭

    That thing is huge. Please be safe as you can possibly be.
    My thoughts and prayers are with you all, Joe

    The bitterness of "Poor Quality" is remembered long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.

    Besides body, I have washed my hair and brushed my teeth with this product. Please try it, you will thank me. I use it every day.

    Warning: It has some really Bizare Scripture and thought printed on the label from the peppermint soaps inventor, kinda trippy B)

    Especially after dealing with a huge gamefish that probably set in my lap and then gutted and filleted. The strong organic peppermint oil really covers the scent.

    Hope all turns out well as can be. I've been fortunate and got to visit Oahu and Kauai in '16, and Kauai and Maui in '17, had a blast both times! Last thing I did in Maui was take a tour of the Deep Island distillery, what a fun place and a view to match. Might have to take a sip or two later of the vodka. Stay safe!

    @ElmerFusterpuck
    I go for the Ocean Vodka before the ALL - ONE liquid soap >:)

    It really is a great product that leaves your skin tingling.

    I may try that. Where was it purchased from ??? :)

  • ctf_error_coinsctf_error_coins Posts: 15,433 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Costco had it at one point, not sure anymore. Health food stores. The internet if it can be shipped to you.

    I just googled it and see Walmart and target, you may have to have it shipped to your store.

    Just curious. Which forum members are from Hawaii and what area. I was surprised after posting about Hurricane Lane, that it appears that there are a lot more forum members from Hawaii than I thought.

    Mahalo (Thanks) and Aloha !!! :)

  • GRANDAMGRANDAM Posts: 8,604 ✭✭✭✭✭

    OK, what kind of car is it?

    You should run a contest to guess the make and model of the vehicle that you are in?

    5 am Lane track update map

    This hurricane has been very slow moving with a crazy path. A sharp left turn spares Oahu and Kauai from direct hits. Hoping that Maui continues our luck.

    Be Safe and cross no flooded streams, creeks, or rivers today.

    Go look at the waterfalls tomorrow.

    Some good from bad, bad Lane. Posted in MauiWatch Twitter account yesterday evening.

    A stunning sunset, even caused by a hurricane, is a wonder to see.
