What an awesome day. We have a storm complete with rain. The proof is in the pictures above. I wanted to be out in it so I left the house to get a Diet Pepsi, gas (we're down to $4.13 a gallon) and a breakfast burrito from Carl's. It was raining harder at the house than at the Mobil 1/2 mile away but I could see the storm better from there. The mountains were just barely peeking through the dense clouds. We even have a National Weather advisory for flash floods now. I can't believe what a big deal the news makes over this kind of stuff. I can understand tornado and hurricane warnings but the monsoons and tropical storm reporting seems to be much ado about nothing. There must be no news to report today. This is too funny....Now the emergency alarm beeping is going off on the TV to really get our attention warning us again about this major weather event.
Well, that's it from the site of the ferocious storm in not so sunny Palm Desert, CA. PS - the temperature is only 80 degrees!

I recall after a rain in california it would smell so fresh and clean. We get that here with the first one or two storms. We posted a blog after TS Edouard, and yep the media had it pumped like was a Cat 1 or 2. We suspect they get bored. We are not bored here, kids are scurried around doing chores. And the lists are made because we have a trip to Target tonight to hunt for school supplies. Ugh, not may favorite thing to do.
