I made a statement in a comment this morning that the worst of the storm has passed and it's just soaking us steadily. Where on EARTH did I get THAT idea? My morning commute sure disabused me of that notion! It was pelting down - I was doing 35 mph with the wipers on high at one point. At another, for those who know the area, I was on I-5 north at Carmen Drive, just under Carmen, and I couldn't see Bonita. At all. When I got to Bonita, I could see the 217 flyover ramp...vaguely. Very vaguely.
My neighbor has irises that have been folded flat to the lawn. My coworker has roses that were blooming, and have had the flowers stripped off by this. It's insane. And very noisy when it's pelting down on your car. And really, in spite of all that, pretty darned glorious. Plus, I still know where both my umbrellas are, so I had one when I needed it this morning.
