Unusual weather for Southern California

No articles, just observing that it was raining all last night and this morning and was 70 degrees, then the thunderstorm dissipated and now we have a "dangerous" heat Index warning with temperatures fluctuating reaching and past a hundred degrees. Im in the San Diego area.

lol okay

Back in the olden days they used to have this crazy conspiracy theory called global warming. I wonder...?

Nah, too implausible. It must be something else... Anything else...

By George, I've got it - aliens! Aliens did it.

I'm in Southern California too and humid weather is pretty normal......it happens. There's nothing out of the ordinary here!

Orange County here.
The rain a couple nights ago was a rare treat indeed,
but nothing that hasn't happened before. Matter of
fact a few years ago we had one blow through Fullerton
in August that blew out the power for 12 hrs.

I'm really hating this weather too. However, there was lightning flashes over the weekend but no actual lightning rumbles/crashes. Did anyone notice that ? Maybe there's a scientific explanation lol.

I noticed it on Saturday night. I was outside &
I was expecting a rumble but it never happened.

And they were also a weird shade of blue. Maybe I never payed attention to them before but for some reason I did this time. Cold weather cannot come fast enough.

I was in 29 palms back in the early 90s during the big landers earthquake, during the 3 years I spend in the desert I was treated also with a very unusual occurrence.

I rained in the Dessert that doesn't happen all the time as you know, it was the most beautiful thing I ever seen, for the next week flowers were sprouting even from the cracks in the road.

The dry out oasis around the Joshua monument look like water falls and streams.

I am glad I was able to witness such a treat.

...heres a handy website....

www.wunderground.com...

...scroll down and you'll see the almanac / history section where you can put in a date and it'll show ya what the weather was... i think a lot of the concerns probably come from people new to the area or too young to have the seen cycle before...
