Just want to second this. A mutual friend of mine died during the santa barbara mudslides a few years ago, and those were during what would be a pretty light storm for anyone on the Eastcoast. The difference is that California's wildfires flatten extensive amounts of land, and, especially that year, the fire season was viscious and intense. I really worry about the people of Maui when the next hurricane hits them as debris flows, the more accurate term used for mud slides, could be incredibly lethal. Hope everyone on forum and out stays safe during the experience and we can all return to normal in the next few days.
