Got bad weather? So does Hawaii...

[KurtNYC]

You think you have it bad with your freezing temperatures and storms? What about "poor Hawaii"?

1. I am not allowed to access your link from work....

...could you please elaborate? I know they've had a hell of a lot of rain this year...with the Kona Express. Is that what you're referring to?

3. It is Triumph the insult comic dog doing the weather for Channel 8 in Hawaii

Even funnier than most of his bits and especially funny for those who have weather that is worse than "clouds" and "light winds"

2. I love Triumph

4. Hilo on Hawai'i (Big Island) is by far the rainiest city in the U.S.

averaging 138 inches (!) annually, far outdistancing mainland champ Mobile, Ala. with a desert-like 60 in.

The larger Hawaiian islands act like miniature continents, with windward (east-facing) areas (like Hilo) being very wet while places in the rain shadow of the mountains (Kona, Lahaina on Maui, Honolulu etc.) are relatively dry, averaging but 20-30 in. a year.

5. Then there is western Kauai, in the high elevations.

Rainiest spot on Earth, they say ... 180 or so inches a year.
