CoastalWx Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Just now, OceanStWx said: I (sadly) just started editing my pictures from 6 months ago. I have some great ones from the Hana Hwy. Literally torrents as you say running off the cliffs and onto the road and the waterfalls were roaring. We missed a washout by less than an hour. They managed to get a front end loader in to push the debris over the cliff by the time we arrived. Jesus I can imagine how bad that road must have been in those torrents. The SE and S side of the island was like driving on Mars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try and remember to post it later today, but I have this one shot of where we pulled over to snap some photos of a waterfall. And there is so much water falling off the cliff onto the car that Beth had to get out of the driver's side to avoid letting it drench the inside of the car.

tavwtby Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Trying to update my signature and add my weather station widget into it, but when I try to edit my profile, the old one is not there, and the WU widget URL just pastes, it soes not show the widget in the preview.

I wonder what percentage of tourists are confused out of their minds when they land on Maui and drive through this to get to the Kaanapali resort area. On the plus side, the wind by Maalaea and especially the backside of Haleakala was epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds great... it had been pretty dry by Hana standards when I was there, so the waterfalls were all rather underwhelming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a strong trade regime while we were there, coupled with a nice area of higher than normal moisture. We did luck out that we got to Haleakala without a socked in summit, but the rest of the week dodged rain showers. The wind was ripping through the saddle by Maalaea so bad that our snorkel trip to Molokini was cancelled because of surf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORH_wxman Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 We did the road to Hanna too and it was a sunny day. My favorite part was the lava tune that isn't marked...but if you read in some guide books they will tell you. Did the red sand beach at the end too. When we were on the big island there was actually snow on top of Mauna Kea. It was April when we went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we did one with the rented lights that was pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you cross the street and there's a small opening in the rock but it opens up quite a bit once inside. It goes back about 50 yards or so and the opening at the end is a bit below ground level with tree roots hanging down and stuff...pretty cool. It's easy to climb out though.

I'm guessing it was probably too dangerous for us to venture into a tube like that then. Every waterfall was closed to swimmers the day we picked because of high water.
