70's here too, kids spent most the day playing outside in t-shirts. Unfortunately that only last while the suns up, it starts getting cold around 5-5:30 and I just ran out to get milk and it's about 45 degrees out there (thats a big drop from earlier!)

It is a balmy 34 degrees out today in Boston. Feels like a heat wave.

Raining, raining, raining and tomorrow is to bey rain and wind. And I get to drive tomorrow, naturally.. Hoping this isn't as big as they say it will be, for the latest burn/slide areas.

When I woke up this morning it was beautiful. Blue skies, no wind, warm. That lasted til about 11 and then it got dark and breezy. Started raining a few hours later and rained most the afternoon. Lots and lots of rain.

Yeah our day started out nice, too, War.. yesterday, that is.. But then rain all night and getting worse with nasty wind. I have a patient today who doesn't speak English and the go-between from the oncology office said she told her to stand out front of her apt building (often we arrive and then call in via cell phone). So.. I must get up there early so she isn't out there it this weather.. grateful that I won't have to use a freeway today .. of course I could find some flooded surface streets. Her appt is at 11am, says 1.5 hours but that can be wildly inaccurate and today I'm hoping we get out of there early as possible, get her home and hopefully in a warm place and then get me home and out of the rain... it is supposed to be harder later (well that is for LA and Inland Empire.. perhaps we are being hit a bit earlier?) I drive again tomorrow.. farther, earlier and again hate for the rather fragile patient to be out in the storm. I know I won't melt, but this looks to be a weeklong series of storms. War, bet you are still getting rain too..

Most of the night, actually. It had stopped last night and then at some point before I went to bed it started again. I wouldn't have even noticed except I always let the dogs out before I go to bed and we had a pretty steady rain going on. Rained most of the night, but not sure when it stopped. I don't think it was too long ago, poked my head outside a bit ago and water was still dripping off the house, car, trees, fence, etc and fairly large puddles in places.

Sigh, I'm starting to get weather warnings...have one for high winds later today and one for urban (street) flooding. The winds already starting to kick up. Our neighborhoods one that floods (er, by that I mean water coming up over the curb, not super serious flooding) but it makes it a pain to get in and out. Good thing I don't have too much planned this week!

Yup, out in the So Cal desert. We've got a little bit of sprinkling right now, but the breeze we had about an hour ago has kicked into rattling the windows windy.

Another weather warning, but this time for flash flooding in the burn areas (Station and Morris burn areas.) I know we need the rain, but this is just terrible, those areas have already had so many problems they don't need anymore. We're getting quite a bit of rain right now, but for the moment the wind is pretty calm. I had to run out to get Caleb 7-Up a few minutes ago and our streets are already flooding, which makes me very worried about those areas that certainly don't need anymore rain.

Merrysea, parts of north main have a higher elevation than others, but down at north main and Ygnacio Blvd shouldn't flood, it will all run downhill towards the lower part at Civic, LOL. ETA: our weather people are saying it is going to be bad in So Cal.

Rain stopped here a few minutes ago. The rain varied from heavy to medium all afternoon. Some wind but not a problem. If reports are correct, we should get a break until tomorrow afternoon. Wednesday and Thursday are supposed to be the really bad days, according to Ch. 7.

Orange County, SoCal ICk.. I was hoping Wednesday wouldn't be so bad. My drive tomorrow is earlyish.. today I went through rain, hard rain, sideways rain, wind, huge deep puddles, some streets with all but the middle turn lane flooded and tons of palm fronds and husks on some streets. Umbrella not always much help. And I got home all damp and was asked to drive Wed and Thur but just said ok to Wed so far. And my stupid defroster isn't being as helpful as I'd like.
