Pearl City, the town this property stands in, in 15 storm reports between 1996 and 2023: 6 heavy rain, 4 flood, 2 funnel cloud, 1 wildfire.
No death or injury is recorded in these reports. Each account below is quoted exactly as the forecast office
filed it, from the NOAA Storm Events Database, and each date
opens the federal record of that event.
A trained spotter reported that the roads near Acacia Rd and Kuala St. along |Kamehameha Highway was flooded in Pearl City. 6-12 inches of water was reported on the roadway with vehicles slow to move through. Also, one lane was closed on H1 and Punahou St, due to flooding over the road. Additionally, cars were stranded in ponding water on the off ramp at H1 and Vineyard.
Heavy showers and rain over southern and eastern areas of Oahu produced small stream and drainage ditch flooding, and ponding of roadways. However, no serious property damage or injuries were reported.
