You all loving this rain, or is it way too much too fast ?

[steve2470]

I've read the warnings about mudslides.

1. Loving it!

It's been a long time coming.

[tularetom]

2. Actually, I'm still waiting for it

Supposed to start after noon and heavy rain is predicted for tonight.

[BuddhaGirl]

3. I'm loving it, however

here in the Bay Area there are widespread power outages, flooding, howling winds...all the associated problems with an epic storm.

Thankfully I get to stay home today!

4. It's the wind so far...

One of the eucalyptus trees I can see out my window just dropped a huge limb with a great big BANG!

Fortunately it fell on grass.

[YoungDemCA]

5. Thankful for it, but I am a bit concerned

Particularly about traffic accidents and flooding.

[Adsos Letter]

6. Loving it!

Had a cast put on my leg yesterday. Been snuggied in under a comforter all day, and it's been coming down hard since early morning.

Granted, I don't have to go outside...

[mackerel]

7. mixed feelings

[Hekate]

8. So grateful for the rain! Unfortunately it's not a drought-breaker....

Also it would be safer to get it in smaller doses spread out over more time, but we'll take what we can get and thank Mother Nature.

It's 11:30 Thursday night in Santa Barbara, and the wind is tossing things about while train keeps coming down.

9. It's really bucketing down now, at almost midnight.

A good night to be tucked away in bed.

[Auggie]

10. Unofficial backyard tally: 5.5 inches in 36 hours.

Took my first "long" hot shower in many months. By long, I mean about an extra minute or two.

I know, I know -- the D is far from over.

[Jamaal510]

11. It's fine for me

as long as I don't have to walk around in it for too long. I'll be in Arcata for a few more days, and this area still has plenty of waterworks ahead.

12. Sac

I'm cool with it, it's badly needed.

[ailsagirl]

13. Love it!!

But we need more more more!!!

[SoapBox]

14. Just say'n...it's back.

I don't actually know how wide spread in the state but in the Los Angeles area, started Saturday morning and it's still raining.

I didn't even know it was forecast...DUH.

[antiquie]

15. Steady in north O.C. and a surprise, too.

[antiquie]

16. Nice little rain down here, .1" so far

after just a couple of hours.

[SoapBox]

17. Been steady here near the ports, since about 4P.

With predictions of on and off all week?

[CreekDog]
