Drapes of water.

Oct 30, 2022

Rain is a bit odd here. Incredibly intense over incredibly small areas. And always on the east shore of Moloka’i.

Why doesn’t it hit the west side of Maui?? We love a tropical deluge.

  1. Wow, scary yet somehow beautiful clouds. Stratocumulus?

      1. About a nanosecond after posting, I knew I’d messed up and it was “nimbo “as you correctly noted. Whichever, a great shot. BTW: A light snow in northwest YYC!

    1. It really does. Tropical rain is nothing like Canadian or Norwegian rain (otherwise known as snow).

  4. I love watching the rain come across water like that. Drapes of water is a brilliant way to describe it.

    1. Thank you Lyndsay. Sometimes the rain is limited to such a small area that it looks like a pillar! ðŸĪŠ

  5. Where is happy hour? Is there a special Hawaiian HH drink?

    1. On the balcony. We have about a 90° view towards the NNW, allowing us to see about half of Moloka’i.

      Mai Tai’s are the best Hawaiian drink. Majorly yummy, but a wee bit too expensive on the caloric sides of things. So we stick to tradition: a Dave-tini and a glass of white wine. ðŸļ
