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.”
