Californians and the storm

Absolutely no problems. Actually have been going for walks that normally wouldn't have taken place. Purely for the fun factor. Cats are fine, too but we don't let them outside under ideal weather. It's been great. Always wanted to move to the UK ;-)

I too have been enjoying it.

Zealand,
You're in Sierra Madre area? We are not too far from there. !

Howdy neighbor!

NE Pasadena, less than a mile from Sierra Madre. If we're lucky, Little Z will be going to SM Elementary next year.

No rain here right now. Woo!

We're at the foothills below La Crescenta, just outside the burn area. I've had enough water. The dog and me can't wait for tomorrow.

Too bad that more of the rainwater in SoCal can't be saved for future use - rather than just flowing into the ocean.

We are optimistic people. We knew this day would come. Now if it only happens once every other year we'll be in good shape. Really.

Zewland,
Yeah! We are about 8 mile east of you Smile

Shakes,
Yikes. Hope everyone will come out all right.

All fine except for the 3 year old roof that sprung a leak today. And the original roofer is out of business. And the DVR that stopped working today.

All wash crossings without a bridge are closed.

The sound of the rain coming down was so intense around 4:30 AM, that I had to get up to look outside.

Kind of missed the sound of thunder and lightning, which reminds me of rain storms back east.

Dana Point has been spared any major problems AFIK.

I'm thinking of changing my screen name to "up all night."

Glad I'm not there. We don't even hear the snow fall. And any damage is slow coming and thus much more easily mediated. Good luck.

I neglected to say that I love the sound of the rain drumming on our roof.

I do remember well, how thrilling it was to wake up and find the world magically changed by the first overnight snowfall. Of course, in Manhattan and its suburbs, the snowfall was never as bad as I've seen elsewhere in the country.

I do know that if, after 48 years of living in SoCal, I were to be faced with the kind of winter that I've seen in the mid-west this year, I'd shrivel up and die on the spot. :oldfogey:
