Weather

In Maui, the weather is different everywhere.
Upcountry could have pouring rain, that keeps everyone inside.
And if they got in their truck and drove 15 min. the Sun would be shiney and not a cloud in site.

So, this morning me and another Mexican parent came to school a bit early, and the topic of rain came up.
The parent said, It's raining this morning. He was looking a bit puzzled looking out towards the ocean and there was no clouds. I was facing towards the mountains, and saw the vog...covering the entire view of the mountain. I explained it was the hot volcanic ashes, causing some moisture to come down...but, it's volcanic ash dust.

Wow...bet you didn't know that. The real topic is, why doesn't this strike any fear or concern in us? Only because, it comes from the Big Island...not our island. There are 5 'recognized' islands that make Hawaii state.
