What Winter?

That is Diamond Head from my dining room window. What looks like smog is volcanic ash and other pollutants-vog, as we call it.

This white-ish haze has been hanging over the islands for the past 3 weeks, making it unbearably hot! It's October and should be getting chilly and drizzly. Back in the last century, it rained every Halloween. And kept raining, gently throughout November, December and usually January.


This is what the island is supposed to look like: clear blue sky with white fluffy clouds. You can see the buildings in Waikiki as well as the ocean.



If this is what an El Nino weather-year is like, global warming is a reality. It is NOW! Does this mean our winter will be dry and warm too? And the parched ground really needs some rain.

If this kind of weather is in the future, solar PV panels are the way to go. Looking at a system now. Price-y but worth it.

Snowbirds are welcome but give me some relief and a change of season! (see my profile photo)
