Fracking freezing! While standing outside just before 7am this morning, waiting for the lab to open, enduring a brisk breeze, it started snowing. It's cold, man.
Yesxterday we went to the beach in Ventura. It was a lovely 78 degrees. We parked in a little known parking lot and set up our umbrella The beach was empty except for one family. Who would have thought this was the middle of February?
Partial clouds all day, then right at dinner time BAM, thunder, lightning, hail and hard rain. But, it only lasted about half an hour and it's gone. Won't make a dent in the drought.
Wet, cold and miserable here. The forecast is for gale force winds , loads of damage, travel disruption etc... but it's flat calm at the minute. I think any storms are going to be further south.
Its 60° at 7:25 am - high in the upper 70's today, just a chance of "sprinkle showers".
We're going to dine "al fresco" - have a dunch (late lunch) or maybe a happy hour meal.
Enjoy the day, folks!
