All that winter rain means brown canals — and a clogged boat harbor, too? That’s what the images from Ala Wai Boat Harbor show. Have a look:

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – Whenever there’s heavy rain, the Ala Wai Boat Harbor gets storm runoff debris. But according to residents who live on boats moored in the harbor, Tuesday’s downpour left a more debris than they’ve ever seen.

“This is by far, the worst, yeah,” said Ala Wai resident Tiffini Lopez. “I mean, after every rain it’s always come in and it’s always been in the front row (near the Ilikai Hotel). But this is the worst I’ve seen it.”
