191 MPH is a bit more than “gale force”.

Historic? Unprecedented?

Leftists lie about such stuff so regularly that claims should be dismissed until historic data from printed materiall published in the past can be examined.

Hawaii has never been hit by a bad storm before?

191 was at the top of a mountain. They buried that in a later paragraph.

Historic and unprecedented are categorized under ‘recorded’ history which is a few hundred years. We don’t know what massive storm, hurricanes, hit a thousand years ago in the Americas

So, why don’t they call it a hurricane or cyclone?

Ever see a sea gull with a feather collar? If you had been up on that mountain walking down the road with your sea gull, you would have that day.

Recorded. Nothing happened before records.

Because it was not either one. Just a weather front.

Just a weather front.

Probably explains why the pinheads at the Weather Channel didn't "name" it "Winter Storm Kamehameha" or some such nonsense, then give endless and breathless stories on its effect on Hawaii.

The USN did name a 640 class ballistic missile submarine the “Kamehameha” after a tribal chief in Hawaii I think. It was a really nicely decked out boat stationed in Hawaii for years. I was on it once in Rota Spain. Maybe the name is verboten.

It was cold as heck last night, low 60's, likely the same tonight. No one at our elevation (~500') has heat, many higher up do have fireplaces.

We got sweat shirts, blankets, and cats. When my wife whines about the cold, I remind her of the bitching about the heat last summer.

We do get seasons, of a sort. And then a cold front moves through.

Did a Weather Channel reporter pilfer a tiki idol?
