This is going to be a really fun weekend. We are in the first of three storms, and apparently the lightest of the storms at that, and things are already going crazy. Around the Bay Area the power is out. And it's not just in the boonies, it's in the metro areas. There is flooding in Mountain View. A power pole fell over onto the San Mateo bridge last night. The ferries have been shut down.
I'm actually enjoying this weather. I'm not a huge fan of raw cold. I like stormy weather. I like the feel of the wind and to watch the leaves swirl around. I like the patterns the rain makes in the puddles. I like the sounds and the look of the sky. It's interesting to watch. It's something that I missed about the northeast when I went to Miami and on from there. In Miami we never got anything but the occasional mega storm. We didn't get pleasant little sqawls like this one.
We need the rain though, so come rain come! We need all of this and a lot more. L.A. needs rain too.
