Heavy rain soaks Kauai, saturating grounds ahead of more possible wet weather Heavy rains soak Kauai, leading to saturated grounds ahead of more possible wet weather By Jolanie Martinez | February 20, 2021 at 5:35 PM HST - Updated February 21 at 2:45 PM HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - While Kauai residents are cleaning up following Friday’s storm, they’re also bracing for more rain on the horizon. Elton Ushio, emergency management administrator of Kauai County said the extent of damages from Friday’s rain is nothing compared to what Kauai experienced in April and August of 2018. “But there was a lot of rain, almost more than usual,” said Megan Wong of Hanalei. “The bridge water gauge rose to 15 feet.”

An enduring material palette of hardwoods and limestone in natural finishes and earthy tones was carefully selected to withstand harsh exposure to tropical rains, wind, and sun. Separate entrances provide dual uses for the property: a more intimate scale for smaller gatherings and a large breezeway entrance with direct access to the lawn for larger gatherings.  © Matthew Millman For this modern pavilion, the architects masterfully utilized the spectacular setting to give the building the appearance of feeling grounded to the land while appearing like a floating beacon from afar.
