Cancel it while airlines are waiving fees. There'll be nothing to see or do in Maui for a couple of years. Or go to another island.Damn I got my vacation planned for next month in Maui.
Prayers to them.

Y'all be safeIt's been crazy here. Maui's fire department had the fire contained on Tuesday afternoon. While everyone slept, winds whipped up to 80 mph (more on this) and spread embers, reigniting the fire while everyone slept and mop up fire crews tried to stomp out said embers. Fire spread while the tires battalions slept, burned the town overnight.
The winds are crazy because Hurricane Dora (low pressure air mass) is passing to the south while a massive high pressure air mass moved in from the north. This caused gradient winds (basically the high and low pressure trying to even out) that were gusting on Maui and the Big Island from 40-80 mph.

There have been recorded wildfires going back in Hawaii to the 19th century. Many of these fires were started intentionallyGlobal warming not fukking around, & these events will occur more often and be more severe.
I have never experienced anything like what the east coast experienced during the Canadian wildfires back in June. That shyt was kinda scary for those 2 weeks until all the smog passed.
It doesn't matter if they were started intentionally. Climate change is setting the conditions to make wildfires (regardless of how they're started) worse.There have been recorded wildfires going back in Hawaii to the 19th century. Many of these fires were started intentionally
