Title: Wild weather in Hawaii
Post by: elagache on December 08, 2021, 11:22:26 PM
Dear WeatherCat observers of extreme weather (preferably from a safe distance.)

Normally, Hawaii isn't the sort of place with any news-worthy weather, but this month have been very different!  Here is UPI report on the situation:

The Washington Post has a pretty photo of the telescopes on Mauna Kea with a blanket of snow!

[wink] . . . . Don't cancel your Hawaii vacation just yet, but if you were hoping that at least Hawaii didn't have crazy weather - well now it does! . . . . . . :o

On the date of that photo there was more snow on the ground in Hawaii than at my home. Today, just a few days later, we now have a foot of the white stuff.
