Looming in the background

Morning paper says we were drenched yesterday!  Most of the southern beaches, including Waikiki and Ala Moana, have been closed since Monday due to a sewage malfunction, but most re-opened again by yesterday afternoon.  Today the skies were washed clean.  It was bright, sunny, clear blue sky til clouds showed up late afternoon.  A few showers so far tonite. 
Went to Sandy Beach late afternoon and was surprised to see signs up for no swimming there as well, altho there were more people in the water than were on the beach. 
Next in line is Hurricane Ignacio, next week.  Go around, please.
