Hey waitaminnit, are we having an informal contest about who is suffering from the most uncharitable local weather? I'm in NorCal. It probably wouldn't even be fair for me to enter such an exchange after what we had going on yesterday.
It'll stand out in my memory, and I'm not even from here. Think of facial lacerations from raindrops, falling sideways. Now the weenies who grew up in this paradise and bitch away when they see water in the sky two days in a row, I think some of 'em will need therapy.
Things are bad all over, though. This might be a good time to stop driving with the knees, bagel in one hand & cell phone in the other.
AND subtract 15 or 20 mph. "Casualties" have been fairly light, considering, and it would be nice to see 'em stay that way.
Hi Buck. Looks like Terry Tamminen might have something, eh? Enjoy the unseasonal warmth. It may be the last for a long time. And while you're at it, feel free to send some my way.

I watched your WX (and the fallout from same) on TWC yesterday, and I sympathize, Morgan. I relate, too. I spent about six weeks out in your neck of the woods (Rancho Cordova, actually) around this time in '87 or '88. I experienced strong rain storms that blew across the area and lasted for a few days during that time. And I've rarely been as terrified driving (outside of the Third World) as I was on Sacto freeways during a major rain storm. The visibility absolutely sucks, the roads are greasy from accumulated oil and stuff, and the locals don't seem to slow down... at all. As I said: terrifying.
Jenny, Lou, Jay and Pat: Looks like we'll just have to grin and bear it, eh? The horror...the horror... ;-)
Cat: I had to google Terry to find out who he is (former CA EPA administrator and member of the New America Foundation). You're sure up on your environmentalists!
Would you prefer I roll my eyes at you now or later? :D
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your CLIMATE CHANGE!
You're getting 68 tomorrow? You ... you ... cad, you. We're getting 45 and a 40% chance of rain. Think rain, think mud bogging out here.

ReplyDeleteAny ol' time, ASW... at your convenience! ;-)

Hey! That's sport, ain't it? (Unless you have to go to town...)

If this is global warming, I'll take it! LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh darn!
