Arashi Blast: Westbound Traffic

When I saw the horrid westbound traffic this afternoon, I wondered if another Exercise Urban Unrest was underway. The rationale being to observe the traffic crush to Ko’olina this weekend as Arashi takes the stage in their Blast in Hawaii concerts. That’s 15,000 fans headed to the west side for 5:30 concerts on Friday and Saturday.

But this was no drill with two separate auto fires reported, one coincidentally right by the Ko’olina area. Though the fire was serious, hopefully no major injuries afflicts the wounded driver.
