Don't forget that if they figure in dollar values for property damages, it can go high, quick, because California is $$$$$.

It was still drizzling when I left for work this morning. Got home in sunshine to 2.5" in the rain gauge for the whole thing. We had far worse with "Snowmageddon" this last winter, but I guess when it comes up from the south instead of the northwest, it's suddenly a big deal.
I fear when the world actually DOES end, I'll be so jaded from failed predictions that I'll miss it.

The news we were just watching claimed Southern California is being "devastated" by hurricane Hillary but all they showed was cars driving through puddles. No snapped trees or power poles, no ripped apart houses or buildings, broken windows, damaged roofs, nothing. I think we have a different definition for "devastated" here in Florida.
Which is exactly why I ignore the talking heads and their poop. NHC/NOAA *only*.

Hundreds of folks missing probably burned to death in Hawaii and the news cycle is Southern Cali cars stuck in mud. Lord there is no hope…
