Above is what it looks like out our downtown Honolulu office window on Saturday, August 9, 2014, at 11:30 a.m. A little gloomy, and very humid, but otherwise, just another day. According to the reports, the anticipated hurricanes, as we predicted, didn’t amount to much for us on Oahu.
Below is downtown at about the same time yesterday morning at the corner of Bishop and King Streets. Very unusual. But speaking as someone who “braved” work yesterday (our office, along with just about everything in town, was closed), it barely rained in the downtown area.
But better to err on the side of caution, I suppose. Also, to all of you who sent messages of concern, thank you. Thankfully nothing to be concerned about this time.
