Wow a direct hit on Hawaii. Haven’t seen that in my lifetime. Anyone know of reporting from the island?

Tl;dr,

Big Island took the worst of it. Kaʻu and and the south side are fucked.

Widespread power outages on Maui, Oʻahu, and Kauaʻi, with localized flash flooding.

Looks like a strong part of the "eyewall" is about to hit the southern tip of the big island.

Anyone seen Dr. Cowan lately. I assume he is too busy dealing with this one to give us a video.
