Yeah, it's funny (or not), the last big storm in December 2021 made national news.... This one is far worse and I've yet to see it mentioned on TV or online by any of the major outlets. I guess there are just a lot of other things going on in the world and after previous fires and floods maybe people are just bored of hearing about Maui/Hawaii?
Some locals are saying there were worse storms but I haven't heard a lot of specifics of exactly when. The one thing I have heard a lot is from a volume of water standpoint this one may be the worst ever. Basically, the wind wasn't as bad as some other times but the water is. In the end, ranking the storms doesn't really matter now.... it's just a mess.
