Are those Tradewinds or Kona Winds?

The Pacific Disaster Center says if they are coming from the northeast, then they are tradewinds which is about 90% of the time in Hawaii. However, if they are coming from the southwest, they are called Kona Winds and usually bring rain... But it hardly ever does in the Waikoloa Beach Resort where Kolea is! The only greenery here is man made using irrigation systems!

The Waikola Beach Resort area is very desert-like and only gets about 6 inches of rain a year, though it does get cloudy sometimes. And take drive in your convertible up the hill to Waikoloa Village and you're bound to get wet on those days.
