Friday night's heavy rain in Maui left a huge hole in Waiehu.

A portion of the road between Makaala Street and Wailupe Drive buckled, creating a sinkhole about 15 feet deep and about 40 feet wide.

That's big enough for a vehicle to fall into.

Crews will meet Monday to coordinate repair efforts.

In the meantime, drivers should be prepared for some traffic as one lane may be closed along Waiehu Beach Road while repairs are being done.
