Well despite the good weather yesterday, last night carried on the stormy weather from the previous night. As dusk fell constant the lightening flashes lit up the clouds over Haleakala. The light display continued through the night. Quite spectacular, though interestingly there was no thunder. While we received less rain than the night before, the south shores of Maui and the island of Moloka’i were issued with a flood advisory until 7:45am this morning.
Again, all is calm this morning.

This morning was the calm after the storm. The storm was last night. I was woken up to rain drumming down on the roof. I just lay in bed listening to this furious, high tempo deluge falling on us, and feeling grateful that I was inside. Each time the rain took a pause, I found myself feeling exhausted, as though I had in some way been dragged into energy of the beat.
Ironically the same sound that woke me up, eventually lulled me back to sleep.

Today has been a funny day. I feel as though I never really got going.

Maui, Micro Climates and Climate Change
Monday, November 14, 2022
Maui is known for having a lot of micro climates. Lush tropical vegetation, barren volcano slopes dropping down to the ocean, cool high elevations, hot humid coastal lowlands. We live on the north east side of Maui, and yesterday went to a birthday party at a park on the south east shore, 34 miles away, an hour’s drive. The difference in climate was stark. We left torrential rain at home, our property is green and lush.

We watched Raymond & Ray last night. A quirky movie about two brothers, played by Ethan Hawke & Ewan McGregor, coming together at the time of their father’s funeral. I enjoyed it even if I struggled with McGregor’s US accent. 🍿
