The Eastern side of the Big Island has been receiving a consistent dosage of vog lately, so maybe the presence of some strong winds may be welcome! The news report is that we can expect it though, especially on our neighbor islands. Mayor Mufi Hannemann has already granted the City and County of Honolulu the day off because of the potentially dangerous conditions. There's a chance that the school students on the neighboring islands may get a day off too because of the expected weather.
Even if we in Hawai`i receive the nasty winds we're anticipating, it's still a breeze compared to the below-zero temperatures and harsh winds being experienced in some of the northeast and Midwest US. So far, five deaths have been reported this week because of the arctic cold.
A beloved Hawai`i personality, Mike Sakamoto died the other day. In 'Fishing Tales' he will be someone I'll always remember as the original star of the show, being that it was when he hosted was when I really enjoyed watching it.
