Lets not forget that Tropical Storm force winds are between 40-74 mph.
I know people are focusing on the rain and flooding, but 70 mph winds are very dangerous.
Lots of times when people think 'oh, it's not a hurricane, just a tropical storm' - sometimes tropical storms can be more damaging, mainly because people minimize them.

I have worked at CBS lot where the BB house is and I live 4 miles away. The La River Channel is cement and at least 30 feet high. We are expected to get at most 5 feet. It does collect in those channels from all directions. There are times when we get heavy rain, and it does get active. I do not see that channel ever overflowing.
Someone mentioned about less crew since the storm is coming. The main storm is not supposed to hit for hours. I think they would have more there then less and if there were issues from the storm they would stay there until it's safe.
Right now it is barely raining and no wind.

Matt and Cirie in the comics room, whispering, can't make out what they're saying.
Cam switches to gym, then, kitchen in quick succession.
How am I supposed to post what is going on when they keep switching cameras?

Pattie, thank you so much for keeping us in the know, you are now a trusted source on this storm for the TVCH network of stations.
It is so good to have someone who is THERE, tell us what is happening.
Let's hear from all our S. Cal. friends on what they are experiencing.

Has there been any explanation for the chicken suit? I haven't seen anything and keep wondering.

Dipo, I just looked at that live feed. That is a lot of water. Another tip, that feed is below the BB house. It is closer to the basement where they shoot some comps. Again it would not be close to the BB stage which is 3 stories above this feed.
KCAL and CBS local news is on this lot too.

Izzy and Blue in the HOH. It seems they are trying to maneuver a super-secret alliance meeting.
Looking at the spy screen, trying to see where people are, who is coming up. Possible meeting in comics room.
This reminds me of when I was 12 and me and my friends set up a secret spy network.

Izzy is the General, giving orders to Blue to meet in Scary, she will set up others to meet up....this is so funny.
Blue leaves, Izzy and Felicia talk about how complicated this all is.
And I am laughing at how comical this all is.

Izzy and Blue in Scary. Waiting for others to show up.
Izzy pacing. Blue sitting. Awkward giggling. Weird small talk.

Pattie, I have never been more confused as to who is in what alliance. It's all merged together in some BB fever dream.

Izzy and Blue in the Scary room discussing how they can get people in a room together.
They seem to be making this much harder than it needs to be.

I think they are expectig the brunt of the storm to be here in LA in a couple of hours, just hitting San Diego now. Rain comes in spurts.

I wonder if this supercedes the alliance they made last night with Felicia, Izzy, Cirie, Jared and Cory?

I live about an hour away from the BB house (in Riverside, CA— where Brendon and Blue are from…😏) it’s been slightly raining on/off in my neighborhood since around 3am. No strong winds yet, but things could change.
The problem with SoCal is we hardly ever get much rain. Our drain system is usually clogged with castoff garbage from humans and/or debris. Our area floods easily, even when it’s not a big storm.

Jag is presenting the alliance name to Felicia:
The 7 Deadly Sins
Because there are 7 of them in this BS alliance.
Could be problematic when they have to decide, who is 'gluttony'? Who is 'sloth'? Lust? Oy.
Anyway, though, Felicia liked the name. They'll probably need a meeting later to vote on it.

I saw a new alliance. The rain constantly pouring in the city of Studio City where the BB house is. I believe that it’s safe there as long as they are watching it closely. Trw, once POV would be over then houseguests will run to the yard again in order stay away from Hisam. LOL!

Dipo - The only thing I can think is that the "Reverse Verse" happened so along with the Veto .. he got a punishment.
I DON'T know this as a fact.. it's just an observation.

Jag is sitting at the DR table next to Jared, excitedly letting him know the new, cool alliance name, The 7 Deadly sins. Jared says he thought it was The Sinful 7. lol
Red, Meme, Blue, Izzy and Cirie are all in the kitchen area. RIGHT THERE.
