Hurricane Hilary to produce dangerous flooding rains across Southwestern US

Hope no one planning on spending next week in Lake Palm Springs.  I'd imagine the 10 to Phoenix will have some significant problems if it stays the course.

I was going to fish Catalina this Sunday. Never mind.

@Lhalo Maybe you can go fishing in Palm Springs.

Lol. The thunderstorms should be fun to watch out there. I’ll be at the beach this weekend so if it’s not too rainy/windy I’ll ride my bike to the wedge and check it out. The swell is going to be yuge.

My baseball game Sunday is at 2 pm.  Pretty sure that’s not happening.  My 13 year old nephew is coming down Sunday to spend a few days with us, was going to try to sneak him into my game.  We’ve got Angels tickets Monday night.  I think both are fucked.  I better dust off the PS4.

Hurricane Hilary strengthens to a Category 4 storm, but is expected to weaken before bringing rain to the Southwest US this weekend

The humidity is going to suck.

I may need to hit up Costco and stock up on SPAM with this storm coming in.

Already prepping by making sure I gather up all my remotes so that if the power goes out I can transfer the batteries back to the flashlights.

Whenever I go to Hawaii I fry up spam in bacon grease.  It’s pretty good.  It gives me the energy to drive around and yell at people that I’m going to own their house someday.

Or wash all the piss and shit in the San Diego harbor

A cat 4 would be pretty devastating for any west coast area but I think the cool water will weaken the storm. Hurricane Hugo was a 4 and hit us 180 miles inland  as a tropical storm. Probably lost 100 big trees around my house. Pretty much cleared brush and Nintendo for the next 3 months.

Crazy how 11 inches is a lot there. We had the wettest July in years. 5-6 in of rain last Sunday and I’ve got the sprinklers on now.

Probably the most damage that Hillary will do to the coast are storm surges that may cause flooding, depending on the tides.  Foothills and burn areas will also have possible mudslide issues, but they always do when it rains.  

The most devastating thing though will be how people will forget how to drive, and it'll take extra hours during rush hour because 20% of the drivers will think it's time for speed and drifting, and 20% of the drivers will be sure to keep 20 car lengths in front of them in the fast lane and slow down considerably in turns.

We're already under a flash flood warning, and it's raining - a day before the rain is supposed to begin in earnest.

Yes traffic on the one week day during the first tropical storm to hit this part of California in the last 80 years should be our main concern.

Yes I remember Cali would get a light rain and have 200 accidents.

Ugh I need to bring everything inside
