How much does it rain on Kauai???

The average rainfall for Kauai annually is 460 inches...
that computes to 1.26 inches/day.
(Mt. Wai'aleale, which is on Kauai, is the wettest spot on the earth.)
Now, you might think that it rains every day here...which it does not.
We have many, many sunny gorgeous days!
But it did rain today...HARD...all day.
The waterfalls off Mt. Wai'aleale,
(which aren't visible on a sunny day),
were absolutely amazing!
This is my "scientific" way of measuring the rain.
I took the picture above yesterday.
This is my vase with today's rainfall!
