O Bon Dance season came to a close Saturday at Pāhala Hongwanji with celebrants dancing around the yagura, activities
for keiki and adults, history lessons, and community coming together. Photo by Clement Hirae
TAIKO DRUMMING AND BON DANCING uplifted the grounds and the people at Pāhala Hongwanji Saturday evening. It celebrated the finale of Bon Dance season around the island, honoring the agricultural harvest and remembrance of ancestors.

     Participants from as far away as Japan wore kimono and other traditional Japanese attire, dancing in the round, beneath the tower called a yagura. Before the dancing and drumming, a service in the Pāhala Hongwanji sanctuary invited people of all faiths to learn about Buddhist teachings and to join in singing.

     Saturday marked the third Bon Dance since the revival of the tradition in 2016. The annual event drew together the many cultures of the town for generations during sugar plantation days. It ended in 1999, just three years after Kaʻū Sugar Co. closed its sugar fields and mill in Pāhala. The revival of the Bon Dance in Pāhala includes the broad community, with such sponsors as the ʻO Kaʻū Kakou community organization.

     During the Bon Dance, everyone was invited to learn about the history of Japanese in Kaʻū and all of Hawaiʻi, and to join in the stamping of head scarves worn during the dance. Minkako Yamazaki, of Tokyo and Pāhala, presented Bon Dance organizer Wayne Kawachi with a Yukata sewn in Hawaiian fabric. Kiko Ando, from Japan, attended the Bon Dance, wearing a Yukata for women, a line of clothing called Aloha Yukata, that she is creating for the Japanese and Hawaiian market.

     The facilities at Pāhala Hongwanji include a Japanese school house, now used for aikido and other activities, an assembly hall with a stage and a kitchen, as well as the sanctuary and parsonage.

       Kaʻū resident Alice Yonemitsu's great grandfather Tokujiru Sato arrived on the first ship from Japan in 1868. He sailed to Hawaiʻi on the schooner Scioto on the 34-day voyage from Yokohama to Honolulu, with 141 other Japanese men and six Japanese women. 
     Sato married a Hawaiian woman Kalala Kamekona. They became a family with nine children. The Satos are part of the Gannenomo legacy of the first Japanese who arrived and married into other races. The Gannenomo heritage is of many cultures, including Hawaiian, Chinese, English, Filipino, German, Irish, Korean, Okinawan, Portuguese, Puerto Rican, Scottish, Spanish, and Tahitian. "Eight generations after their arrival, they personify the promise of Hawaiʻi's diverse cultural heritage," said the display at the O Bon celebration.

      The next ship of Japanese for Hawaiʻi arrived in 1886. Through 1911, some 400,000 Japanese left their homeland for the U.S.

AFTER WEEKS OF CLEANER AIR, FEW EARTHQUAKES, AND LITTLE LAVA, Hawaiian Volcano Observatory reports that spatter reappeared on Saturday in the Fissure 8 lava cone. "It is common for eruptions to go through periods of diminished output, or to pause completely, only to reactivate days, weeks, or even months later," says this morning's statement from Hawaiʻi County Civil Defense.

O Bon season. Photo by Julia Neal
     USGS HVO reported the spatter slowly covered the 65-by-15 meter (210-by-45 foot) crater floor by yesterday evening. Webcam views showed weak incandescence, occasionally reflected on the eastern spillway wall from the crater overnight, suggesting that the lava in the crater remained active. This morning, ground crews had no view of the crater inside the Fissure 8 cone, but report the cone is quiet when viewed from a safe distance, with no visible fume.
     Janet Babb of HVO told Hawaiʻi News Now, "It's very hard to say what it means because eruptions don't typically just end like flipping a switch. They often kind of sputter to a conclusion, but when we see incandescent lava within an active vent like the Fissure 8 cone, we would be very reluctant to declare that eruption completely over."
     Bruce Omori, photographing from a Paradise Helicopter for his Extreme Exposure gallery, reported on Ikaika Marzo's facebook overnight. He wrote that during his Fissure 8 overflight on Saturday, "there were a few moments when lava burst upward of 20 feet. Cracks along its periphery and surface led me to believe that convective circulation was occurring, but upon closer inspection, I think that it may just be pressurized expansion fracturing its cooled surface. Interestingly, much of the foliage downwind of the channelized system is making a comeback. Isolated kipukas of green now stand out in the middle of flow fields."
     With the spatter report, Hawaiʻi County Civil Defense put into place the following restrictions:
  • Spattering resumed at Fissure 8 yesterday, prompting Civil Defense
    to reissue restrictions on areas vulnerable to volcanic activity.

    Access to the entire lava flow field (i.e., the fissures, etc.) and a 50-yard perimeter are restricted. The flow field is extremely dangerous and remains off limits. Please be aware that the community needs to respect the private property rights of the residents in the lava zone, and trespassers will be prosecuted.
    • Highway 132 checkpoint between Nanawale and Lava Tree State Park remains closed to the public, with access only to residents, officials, and authorized personnel with placards.
    • Properties not destroyed, but isolated by lava on E. Pohoʻiki Road, Malama Ki Place, Halekamahina Road, and E. Pahoa-Kapoho Road are accessible to residents with Civil Defense authorization only.
    • Leilani Estates access is limited to residents, officials, and authorized personnel with placards. Property on, and east of, Pomaikai Street is in the mandatory evacuation area. For access to this area, residents must make an appointment with Civil Defense for an escort.
    • Placards are available Monday through Friday at the Civil Defense office in Hilo, located at 920 Ululani Street from 8 AM to 4 PM.

    HURRICANE NORMAN BECAME A CATEGORY FOUR last night as he continued moving westward toward the Hawaiian Islands. At 2 p.m. Sunday, Norman was a major hurricane with 130 mph winds, clipping along at 20 mph to the west-northwest, 1,460 miles east of Hilo.
         Behind Norman is Tropical Storm Olivia, just southwest of Baja California and heading toward Hawaiʻi. The National Hurricane Center predicts she will become a hurricane on Tuesday.

    A POWER OUTAGE LASTING UP TO AN HOUR THIS MORNING was caused by a unit trip. Hawai‘i Electric Light reports that people in portions of South Point, Hilo, Kea‘au, Puna, Honoka‘a, Kona, Waikoloa, and Waimea - about 40,800 customers - experienced a power interruption at 5:47 a.m.
         HELCo explains that a generating unit at independent power producer Hāmākua Energy Partners tripped offline unexpectedly, followed by a combustion-turbine unit trip at Hawai‘i Electric Light's Keahole Power Plant while it was responding to the sudden load changes. Automated load-shedding, which is necessary to protect the island's power grid, explains the utility, operated properly. Alternate generation was started and service to most customers was restored within minutes. The remaining customers were restored by 6:50 a.m. The cause of all unit trips is under investigation.
         Follow Hawai‘i Electric Light on Twitter @HIElectricLight for outage information and updates. To report a power outage, call (808) 969-6666.

         "Mr. Kneel has been fortunate enough to perform at over 500 schools and venues in 43 of the United States and seven provinces abroad! Today he records with his life-long musical heroes and lives a very charmed life! He also loves the use of an exclamation point!"
