The fun is about to begin!...Daniel:

>It is forecast now as a direct hit for Hawaii Sunday night and Monday morning, visiting my house before anyone's!.
It has weakened to a Tropical storm though it's center still has winds of up to 120mph.

I spent yesterday nailing boards over my roof tarps. I do not have my metel roof on yet.
Today I am going to get the windows ready and run ropes to the ohia trees in four corners to keep my house upright since it sticks up high and takes any winds full force.
I hope my windows hold!
