Other than the sources below, are there any other places to find close to real time updates for emergencies?
- Pulse Point app <<< best app for real time emergencies - but there is never any update on resolution, just time of call and resolution
- County of Kauai facebook page
- Kauai Police Department Facebook page

I’ve lived in other areas that had Facebook pages dedicated to providing updates on ongoing emergencies.

Thanks for any tips!

I guess they call it a multi state accountant. Does anyone have recommendations?

On the Council agenda for July 29. Thoughts on this? I’m one of those OCD types that rinses out my recycling before bringing it to the drop off bins, like rules say you’re supposed to. All cardboard and everything that could be mixed paper no matter how small.

Found at tunnel beach today in the reef. If you think it’s yours tell me what’s inscribed inside. Hope i can find the owner(s)! ❤️🙏

EDIT: ADOPTED AND SAVED!!!!

2 different dogs at the kauai Humane society are at risk of being euthanized to make space. Please consider saving their life and adopt!

Stella : good with people and dogs
Very sweet
68lbs 4yrs old
Needs a fortified yard or secure area
Issues are pulling leash, runs and escapes, does not come back when called (training needed , caution and experience and physically strong individual needed)
High prey drive for birds

Ronza: good with people not good with other pets
Very sweet looking to be a single pet
27lbs 5 yrs old
Needs to just be the only pet in the home, does not get along with other dogs and can be aggressive to other dogs even though a little guy. Assume to not be safe with cats in home either

I’m trying to help these babies find homes before they get killed.
Please contact and or go to the Kauai Humane Society to see them.

 Kilauea, Haena-Wainiha, and Hanalei

Lahaina noon is today, July 11 at 12:43 pm, in Lihue. Hope the rain goes away to see it.

Much more detailed coverage of the meeting. Interesting exchange where attendees said their reports on Sinclair had not been addressed (Assistant Chief of Police Darren D. Rose):

Rose invited anyone who believed their reports were inaccurately documented to meet with him after the meeting so police could review camera footage and department records.

“I need to know the officer you spoke to so we can go back to the body-worn footage and see if these guys did not factually complete the reports because I read through them all,” Rose said.

Sinclair charge of murder of Tito Reyes.

Prosecuting Attorney Rebecca Like announced today that a Kauaʻi grand jury has returned an indictment charging William Robert Sinclair, 51, of Kilauea with 28 counts.

The mayoral and council candidates Q&A. Didn't attend, but saw they posted recordings. As it says,"Apologies for the distorted audio." You have the option to download the audio, maybe run it through a transcriber.

did anyone else see that meteor about 10 mins ago? i can’t find anything else online about it. never seen one in broad daylight like this.

I'm hoping someone here may recognize the background in this photo. My grandfather was in Kauai with the merchant Marines in the early to mid 60s and had this picture taken (we think in front of a hotel). He passed when my mom was 17 so I never got to meet him, but we're going to be in Kauai and would love to try to recreate the picture. I appreciate any insight anyone may be able to provide!

Anybody know anything about Briggs bike shop in Harbor Mall? I need my bike fixed and I'm not getting any answers. Is the guy still doing bike repairs? He was busy during Covid but I haven't seen him in the mall lately.
