Title: End times come to Southern California OR "I'm so wet right now!"
Post by: Howard Alan Treesong on January 18, 2010, 04:04:29 PM
We're getting a "once in 50 years" rain right now. 40 mph winds and about 6-8 inches of rain.

I need to go to the grocery store but oh my goodness, it is like the apocalypse outside.

First the earthquakes, now this? Where's our disaster relief. :'(

Must be raining harder near the beaches.  It's not too bad here.  Definitely seen worse in So. CA and faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar worse in Japan :P  

Rain is good, it gives the boring CA weather some variety!

You live on top of a mountain! Your house is going to slide down!

Down here, I look outside and I wonder, where's Anderson Cooper? Shouldn't he be standing in front of that bending palm tree?

There's fear that because of all the fires we've had for the last couple of years, the rains are going to cause some serious mudslides.

If this keeps up much longer there are definitely going to be some serious mudslides.

Yep, it's pouring outside. Place where I work at just got a shitload of water damage thanks to a leaky roof.

I've seen much, much worse though.

Oh snap, Patel you live in SoCal? I'm up in the central coast, and we're getting some pretty tough weather too. It's funny to see Californians whine about how terrible the weather is, when pretty much any other state gets this shit every year.

Well, you know how us fhaggy treehugging libruls like to complain about everything!

Seriously though, a tree falling on your roof is ill no matter where you live.

I'm more saying how the typical Californian isn't equipped wardrobe-wise to handle this weather, and how they complain about it.

If your house is in danger of being annihilated, yeah that's reason to complain.

PICs or it didn't Happen. (JK)

These storms from what I saw seem to be the 100 year floods.

Edit: Wow, Sea World closed due to Floods. That place is a water attraction. Like closing a water park.

Edit2: I found like to the local ABC station that have a few videos.
