We had high winds that actually shook the house last night. Trees in our neighborhood fell over and I found a half dozen roof shingles in my lawn this morning. I guess the winds were about 60 mph at times (hurricanes start at 74 mph) and Kauai had a 24-hour total of 3.23 inches of rain.
Apparently the storm is not done with us and is hovering north of the island chain. It may still come back to smack us around a few more times before the weekend, say the forecasters.
I need to build an ICF home to live in soon. It was unnerving having the house shake.
