Flood Zone

The water in the Ala Wai Canal was three feet from the top of the bank, but there's not a lot of safety margin with the storms bearing down on us.
Although [Tropical Storm] Flossie is forecasted to lose strength as it approaches Hawaii, it is expected to generate dangerous high-surf conditions mostly along the east and southeast shores of Hawaii over the next couple of days.
My parents' home is a quarter-mile away and is part of the Ala Wai Canal flood zone. Well, we've escaped flooding from hurricanes before; here's hoping our luck will continue to hold.
