ʻElo ke kuāua o Ualoa; puaʻi ka lani, kū kele ke one. 

Drenching is the shower of Ualoa; the heavens overflow to soak the sands.

Very wet weather. A play on ua (rain) and loa (very much). Ualoa is a place name. —ʻŌN#343

English Description: 

Are you folks keeping warm in all the busy happenings of the cold Mānoa mornings? Here’s our ʻōlelo noʻeau that we’ll be reading this week of the full moons. And the rains indeed came this week. I heard from my friend that their sweet potato has been going off in their garden because of the heavy rains.
