Hope and Pray you are all fine and out of the area until safe to come back.

The news reports are really scary.

I live in San Diego and all is well here. We needed the rain so badly. It's the crazies on the road that is the problem. They just don't slow down and slide and crash all over the freeways. The poor people with the cold and snow are the ones to feel sorry for.

Yes, it sure is a mess for many of us with the snow and cold however, it was the rain and mudslides that are so much worse in the LosAngeles area at the present time. We will probably get flooding after it warms up a bit since so much of the country got much more snow than they are used to having.

Glad you're safe.

Exactly! I was discussing w/my Dad the other day how I feel lucky to live here...I love the colder weather, but the days on end of snow & frigid weather would be unbearable for me I think!

Yes, we needed the rain & I love it when it rains. Poor doggies were not able to go out for walkies for the last few days, but we're heading out today. It was raining a lot, non stop on Friday, all is ok here. A little flooding on the 1st ground level staircases & some water in the garage.

The places where there were fires were hit bad, all the mud coming down from the hills. Thank you for thinking of us, here in Cali!

It wasn't that bad this time. Only a very small percentage of homes got mud.

We actually had one yesterday. It was so small no one noticed. I didn't feel it, but heard about it on the news.

Just saw this thread too. Nothing to be concerned about out here. I'm roughly 10 miles from the area that burned and was having mud slides. Since I'm up in the foothills, we did get quarter of a foot to half a foot of flooding in our backyard which sits lower than the rest of the house. That's about it. I hear some surfers had fun enjoying the waves we've been having.

OK, OK, OK, so I need not have worried however I just watch the news reports and they looked a great deal worse than the link I posted.

[capt_noonie]

That is what the media wants you to think. But bless you for worrying about us. It's ok, we didn't float off into the Pacific.

[DvlshAngel985]

^^what she said! I know we're not use to rain, so they make it into a big deal on the news. Thanks for thinking of us!!

I live near San Bernardino. I was up late (I think it was Monday) and there was 2 within 40 minutes from each other. I have been freaked out since. So much so that I went out and purchased flashlight to put in every room and make everyone have a pair of shoes next to their beds.

Yeah i didn't feel it either. But those are just little pressure releasers from build up. lol we are due for a real one.... I think.
