The cool air is nice. The storm has shifted to the east some, they expect the rain to first hit the mountains so we wont get much of the initial storm but then when it moves north it will generate some winds that wills send more rain our way.
We are in a good location were we are, not so sure about the mountains and the beaches.

Tropical storms can generate a LOT of rainfall if they stall out or move slow.
Water tho, like S***, always goes down hill, so it's going to pile up on someone regardless.

It so humid here today, been raining on and off.
Feels like Florida.

Ned Kleiner is a scientist and catastrophe modeler at Verisk. He has a PhD in atmospheric science from Harvard. And his report of three days ago for the Los Angeles Times explains why hurricanes and intense tropical storms have seldom visited Southern California in modern times—and why that could be changing.

"Opinion: Why hurricanes like Hilary have been so rare in California"
Ned Kleiner for the Los Angeles Times; August 18, 2023.

Recent research suggests that major hurricane landfalls in the eastern Pacific could become up to 30% more frequent if global temperatures increase by at least 2 degrees Celsius. In addition, it is believed that climate change will increase the frequency of extreme El Niño events by a factor of two by the end of the century.
