The good thing about winter? I can put my iron away, because I put away the cotton and the linen shirts, and wear turtlenecks and cardigans all winter long,

BTW, Chiliwilli wins....

I win? What did I win? I didn't even know there was a competition. Do I get to be a princess? Can I wear a tiara and strut my stuff. I can't believe I won. I never win anything! This is just so exciting I almost pee'd myself.

It's a very balmy 23 degrees here in the frozen northland. When it gets below zero, I might consider digging my jacket out of the closet....or not.

We WERE supposed to get snow today. Now it's not supposed to be here until Saturday. What's up with that?

The storm is still pounding them in northern California (our phone lines in our office were down today due to weather). I don't think it's really started the slide down the coast, but word from up there is it's done nothing but POUR!!!

I hope it peters out before it gets this far south.

Uh, War, Costa.. it has slide down the coast.. it is raining pretty steadily now, hear in Fountain Valley..

I went out a couple of hours ago to get lotto tickets for the big Mega Bucks thingy, and walked to 7-11 and back and there were tons of clouds that looked full of rain and looks like God reached down and gave 'em a big squeeze

And it is getting harder as I type..

Hmm besides the flash flood alerts and mudslide alerts for burn areas it does say the main alert for a fast hard storm is for Orange and San Bernardino counties..

I got the flood alerts for LA County (Lancaster listed as part of it) but I think that really means up closer to the mountains where it burned this summer, probably right out there where the news reporters from LA come and stand and act like the only thing up this way is a bunch of tumbleweeds and dirt.

We've had a fine mist off and on since about 4:30, went to my aunts and the grocery store and we could feel it, but didn't get even damp, that kind of mist. It may still pour, but hasn't started yet.

It has now been raining for 12 hours...only had like a hour with no rain...well sprinkles. Now it's raining cats and dogs...I hope we've gotten the majority of this rain...I don't think LA's mud could take it

Crap! LOL, sis just called and told me my bil broke down on the side of the freeway and asked if I could come get her and then go get him and his work buds. Just now realized I'll probably be driving right into it, not only the rain but at least a couple of the burn areas. We still haven't gotten any great deal of rain yet.

Just walked back in the door. First had to pick sis and the baby up (after me getting dressed and ready,) then a stop for gas and coffee. Hey, Sea and all So Cal folks, did ya'll know between Lancaster and Santa Clarita there are two Soledad Canyon exits on the freeway? Well, we didn't! Bil told us to get off on Soledad Canyon, go under the bridge and get back on the freeway heading home and they would be right there. They weren't there. (I swear at some point this will turn into a weather and big old So Cal weather baby post!) We were halfway to Palmdale before sis got ahold of him on the cell and he said oops, work buddy says its the second Soledad Canyon exit. ARGH! Got off the freeway, went under a bridge and got back on headed to LA.

And that is when the weather hit hard. Went from not even sprinkling to pouring buckets of huge, fat rain drops, just sheets of water. And then maybe 3-4 minutes later I peered a little further down the freeway and said, "Sis, is that FOG???" OMG. I came close to pulling over and calling bil to hitch hike to where I was at, lol. Asked sis what the heck else she planned on throwing at me, here I am driving on the freeway at night (something I never do cuz I have trouble with all the lights) in the rain and fog. Finally found the guys and bil started to get in the back, what the heck did he think he was doing? I'd driven the last 15 miles white knuckled and praying and he thought I was driving home? Ha!

It poured like that most the way home. When we got back to Palmdale it was only sprinkling and when we got to Lancaster it had stopped thought judging by the puddles it had rained hard for a while at least. We had to go back to the shop to wait for the tow truck driver so they could get all their tools out of the car then dropped them off and headed home. Just as I turned the corner into our neighborhood, it started to rain again.

Told bil if he breaks down in the rain again at night he can walk home. He thought I was joking!

I think I will take my winter snow over the rain and mudslides. Stay safe all!

P.S. It is already 37 this morning, yikes, I want my snow to stay for Christmas and beyond...it is winter after all.

Welcome home, Wargod!

The rain hasn't amounted to much here - SB County.

An earthquake woke me up this morning. Centered south of Big Bear - news reports say it was a 4. It was nothing compared to other quakes but my cat still went to hide.

Lots of rain throughout the night here. Rosie, I didn't feel the earthquake.

War, I really felt for you having to drive in the downpour during the night. I'm like you, I don't care to drive at night with all the bright headlights and pouring rain added to the mix. Glad you got home safely.

War, that was a tour de force and ACK about the two Soledad Canyon Road exits.. tell him next time get the exit NUMBER, please!

(or maybe Autoclub?)

Glad you had company on the ride, and cell phones.. Sorry about the rain.

This morning it was clear it had rained more after I went to sleep.. the ground looks "juicy", but there is actually some blue sky along with clouds right now. Happy crows are sailing about..

Yep, we better not find out that even ONE of those guys had AAA and didn't think of it. Remember, you can use your AAA for a tow even if it is not your car, as long as you are a passenger in it.

Oh, I griped about the AAA all the way there last night and called bil stupid (I don't really mean that, lol.) Late 2006 my sister started having car problems and kept getting stuck around town. In Jan of 2007, mom and bil went in together and got her AAA. They did not put his name on the policy because he said anytime he was driving sis was with him. Of course that didn't take into account him driving all over So Cal for work!

It rained pretty hard for a while around 2-2:30 here but I'm not sure how long it lasted. Now we've got some clouds and blue sky. It's actually decent out, up to 56 and no wind.
