It has been almost fifty years since there has been serious flooding in the Kihei-Wailea area on Maui, and most of the development of that region has occurred in the interim. The southern west slope of Haleakala is a huge catchment area, and that drainage funnels into a concentrated stretch of shoreline. I would not want to be in Kihei or Wailea for this storm.
