Haleiwa Evacuation!

216

it was another very challenging day for the foil, but i love challenges.  and the more i foil waves like this, the better i will get.  same as surfing…

wow, there was a huge storm that poured rain over Oahu.  it’s been a while so you can expect crazy things to happen.

although Haleiwa wasn’t raining, it was storming in the mountains.  and the rain water has to go somewhere so when the level rose 15′ in minutes, the government issued an evacuation for everybody in Haleiwa.  it was the first time i heard of an evacuation of the whole Haleiwa…

little by little, the rain water started to overflow the rivers.  then it got ugly.  i hope everybody was safe and their houses were ok.

this is not in a river or ocean, this is on a street.

and take a look at Waimea Bay.  the water up there on the North and East shores won’t be clean for another week or so.  stay out because the big sharks like to play on days like this…
