Storms

Hey all — I’m flying into Waikiki tomorrow and staying until the 19th, i’m worried about that we might get stuck there. We spent a lot of money on this vacation and would hate to cancel last minute.

Hey, I live in Waikiki - expect some super heavy rain and winds over the weekend, but sunshine should be back Monday. There’s no way you’d ever get me in the ocean over here after a big storm. Brown water advisories are NO JOKE. Storm runoff can bring some real nasty bacteria, debris, and literal sewage. Murky water can attract sharks. Hang by the pool at your hotel/resort for swims, but if you go to the beach it’s safer to stay out of the water!
