I saw on the news that there was a big slide in the San Bernardino mountains. I can't even imagine 150 mph winds! That is so scary. We had winds up to 85 mph and SO many trees came down. There were road and bridge closures all over the place. It's still overcast and windy today but we're getting a break from the rain today. It's supposed to start again Sunday night through Wednesday.It started to rain about 4 pm and I don't know when it stopped as I went to bed at 9 with an aching shoulder. The wind was howling through every crack, it even made the wrought iron bannister sing, very weird low humming. They say there were 150 mph winds going through the pass called the Grapevine which is north of LA going towards Bakersfield and later "died down" to 100 mph. That's still too darn high wind and I always worry about my son in weather like that because he drives a big rig. This morning no rain but I just heard that from Huntington Beach south it is already raining again at the beach which will come farther inland shortly. There is huge surf, they say as high as 14 feet which would be a sight to see but I'm staying home. There is more rain forecast for Monday through Wednesday. Temp is barely up to 50F and with the dampness and wind it always seems so much colder. We don't have clothes for weather like that! I'm staying in with a book and my fur babies.It's been crazy in California! Here on the Central coast, we've had lots of rain and high winds, which means lots of trees going down, which means power outages and road closures. 85000+ people without power today in Monterey County. Major freeways shut down because of trees down. Rain was supposed to end mid-afternoon here and be heading your way, @segelkatt but it's almost 10 p.m. here and still raining.
