Kaua'i! First and only.. Boy, how we bonded!

"Iʻiniki meaning "strong and piercing wind&quot [1] was the most powerful hurricane to strike the U.S. state of Hawaiʻi in recorded history. Forming on September 5 during the strong El Niño of 1991–1994, Iniki was one of eleven Central Pacific tropical cyclones during the 1992 season. It attained tropical storm status on September 8 and further intensified into a hurricane the next day. After turning to the north, Iniki struck the island of Kauaʻi on September 11 at peak intensity; according to a report[1] by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Iniki had sustained winds of 160 mph (257 km/h), which is a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. It was the first hurricane to hit the state since Hurricane Iwa in the 1982 season, and the first major hurricane since Hurricane Dot in 1959. Iniki dissipated on September 13 about halfway between Hawaii and Alaska."
