I'll make a Costco beer run today. Those new Heineken self contained mini kegs look like the way to go.

We're starting to see clouds coming in from the south-east. The trade winds out of the north-east are blowing at 21, gusting to 35. They should hold Flossie to a west north-west direction.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

5 PM Update
Flossie has dropped to a category 1 storm. Winds 98 mph gusting to 121. 156 miles south of the Big Island
The southwest side of the Big Island is seeing 25 foot waves and winds gusting to 50+ mph.
Hilo harbor is closed which means the Pride Of Hawaii cruise ship was diverted to Maui. A loss of 2,900 SGs coming ashore.
At this point it looks like the rest of the islands won't see anything other than some higher than normal winds. Not even much rain which we could really use.
The Central Pacific Hurricane Center just said the upper level trade winds are starting to tear Flossie apart. It may be downgraded to a tropical storm later tonight.
Thank you all for your thoughts!!

Long as you get some good surfing out of it, though, it's okay with me if it falls apart into a cute little stormy-wormy. Ooh boo goo goo boo! There's a good little stormy.
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?
