Well, thankyou.

I got to go to LA and play in the mud.

Too many mudslides to go around, so I just drove thru them.

I guess you could say we welcomed you with open...uh, flood controls.
I see blue sky and

the sun. The weather folk say no more rain till Sunday.

Who listens to weather folk? 8)
This is the THIRD highest rainy season we've had since 1898...or something like that. Which will probably change after the next storm.

We have more rain that Portland and Seattle!!!
Since the sun 8) is out....I suppose I should be out and about...huh?

Yes, this was supposed to be the eye of the storm, but it seems the storm vanished. It is a beutiful day here too.

Oh, and the truckwasher washed allll the mud off my truck for me. It is again, a pretty blue instead of a dingy brown.

32" of rain this season. That's a lot, even for a desert...err, I mean LA

No, the normal rainy season. I believe it's between the beginning of winter and the beginning of the following winter.

Actually, I think it's July to June. Normal would be 12 inches or so....and we've really beaten that one.
Yeah....desert......with flash floods.
They 'slayed' the tiger and now they're jack hammering a rock perched over the PCH.....
Red and yellow tagging sagging homes....
Filling in a sink hole in Covina.....
Trying to dry out damaged areas....
getting ready for more rain next week
And in two weeks I am going to the Grand Slam in Pasadena! YAY!

If pasadena is still there. hwy 14 is a mud hole, 210 thus far is just halfway under water, but should be dried out just in time for the next storm.

Now, I want you to tell your weatherman to make sure the sun stays shining at least till monday. I have to deliver a load in SouthGate on Sunday and don't want to get wet...again.

It doesn't rain in Southern Cali. It Poors.
I do like my weatherman.
Weather forcast for South Gate California:
Tonight: Partly cloudy early with increasing clouds overnight. Low 51F. Winds WSW at 5 to 10 mph.
Tomorrow: Mostly cloudy skies early will become partly cloudy later in the day. High around 65F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph.
Tomorrow night: Clear to partly cloudy in the evening with more clouds for later at night. Low 51F. Winds light and variable.
Monday: Partly cloudy. High near 65F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph.
Tuesday: Partly cloudy. Highs in the upper 60s and lows in the upper 40s.
Wednesday: Mainly sunny. Highs in the low 70s and lows in the mid 50s.
I only need tomorrow (Sunday) to be a nice day. I'll be long gone back to my side of the mountain before sunset.
