bwlfp, there was no flood caused by stream overflow in Manoa in 2006. This is footage is of the overflow in 2004.

@parcolubrite Not true, it happened twice, the flood in 2004 was more serious and flooded the campus. This one flooded the road but did not damage UH.

Let you tell you about the 2004 flooding of Manoa Stream - it happens once every 30 years. One of the reasons for this constant flooding is the inadequate planning for growing stormwater runoff being diverted to a ditch that feeds into the main stream. If no one does anything to fix this, rest assured, you will see a re-occurance of this type of flooding in Manoa Stream due to an over-developed valley for a under-developed stream.

Impressive. And that is normally a trickling little stream, if that. I read that the flood in 2004 was nearly twice as big in the manoa river. I would love to see a video of that!
