(Computer issues kept me offline for several days) Anyway, this storm caught everyone by surprise. For a storm to go from 50 mph winds to 165 mph winds in less than 24 hours is unprecedented in this part of the Pacific. Everybody planned for a windy little storm, not a devastating monster. I'm sure we'll see more news after the sun comes up there. It's awful.
