A big storm hits San Diego today


A big storm hits San Diego today

Strong winds (Gusting to 40mph/64kph) and heavy rain at times today hit San Diego. It is much needed rain...so we don't complain. It has been raining off-and-on since last Thursday morning.

You can barely see the Eucalyptus trees on the left and the palms on the right swaying.

Glad to hear you're getting some rain after all! It's stopped raining here finally and obviously scooted off over there!

Good to have rain Delonix but it sure looks miserable.

Yes,we're finally getting some rain...however, today was beautiful and clear. Yesterday, was the biggest storm we've had this Winter season. We badly needed the rain because our extreme drought. It still may not be enough, as we need to receive twice our normal rainfall (which is very unlikely) in order to have no water restrictions this year.

Terratoonie:

Still none yet...however, soon I'll have to buy one. I'm sure my plant would like the rain water during the Spring, Summer and Fall when we receive no rain.
