The 'Pineapple Express' is kicking in.. :-}
It is gonna get messy in the West before it lets up. It already is.. ground and hills are saturated in many spots..
But .. without the rains, we would have been hurting in a few years, for sure.
I don't know what is with this report but the weather here in Northern CA is no worse than it gets everyear. Now and then we have a tornado in this part of CA also, they are never very big and usually don't cause any damage at all or to maybe one house, as is the case with the one in SCA. We are getting wind and rain but we get that every year, every storm that passes over Nev, Utah, Colo, etc. usually goes by here first. I have seen storms like this every year and this year the snow line is higher than normal, usually we get snow down to 1200 feet or lower and this year so far the snow level has been above 3000 ft. What the heck is with reporters that they have to scare the heck people every time they print the news?
Oh, and yes, it is Bushes fault, simply by putting his name on a piece of paper, Kyoto, all weather would have immediately become mild and sunny but cold of course, due to the drop in global warming!
I'll be remote viewing all the bowl games from home.., never went to one before. ;-)
There will be plenty of folks there, I'm sure.
That's a great area to visit,, lots of places to get 'charged up' before the game in that area.
Wild snowstorms in the mountains and tire chains. Goes together like peanut butter and strawberry jam. About the same consistency, too.
Be safe and stay warm.
I was thinking the same thing last month when this was the view outside my house in Lake Arrowhead after 2ft. plus of snow overnight...
I wasn't that far from the action down here...The Storm thread:
***Tornado Warning -- Avalon -- Catalina Island California
Blow by blow as the storm roared thru the LA Basin.....
What's wrong with Texas in the Rose Bowl?
They are part of the United States last time I checked....
I thought you lived down here on the beach.
....damn....that is beautiful...
I do. Arrowhead is my "almost every weekend" home. Hopefully permanent in a few years.
They must not have mobile homes in California. 8^>
That is a nice way to live.
