Wow - I woke up a half hour earlier to the clap of thunder!

There's LIGHTNING!

And THUNDER!

And a real live DOWNPOUR!

Again!

And Again!!

I grew up in Maryland, where this happens all the time.

But now, it's SoCal's rainy day!

Our streets will flood, and mudslides will follow.

But for now, I'm 9 again, watching the lightning & rain from my open window. And I'm a happy boy.

:)

Send some our way. We haven't seen a drop here in Mesa for 2 months.

Heavy rain
Thunder
Lightning

Earlier we had a a lil rain but now it's a downpour.

KJ

Stay home if you can..................the usual streets will flood. And the number of accidents will more than triple.

Be Safe

Central coast of CA checking in.
We'll take all the rain we can get. The sound and light show is icing on the cake.

I am sure someone is taking the rain as a sign the church is true.

If my memory is correct, you are just a few miles East of me. I have only seen a couple of flashes, but there has been plenty of thunder, and lots of rain.

I remember one morning in San Diego during the mission when my comp and I awoke to hear rain outside. We both immediately jumped in the car and drove down to the nearby park, got out and stood in the rain for a solid 20 minutes just enjoying it.

Rain in SoCal is so nice!

Lorenzo Snow was right all along. Pay your tithing, and it will eventually rain. The church is trooo!

Well, just make sure you pay tithing during an El Nino year....

I heard lots of fabulous thunder, but was too damn tired & lazy to get out of bed; time was when I would to get out of bed at 3 a.m. and go outside to enjoy a nice (not destructive) warm Santa Ana blowing. Magical.

I prefer to watch SoCal lightning on those rare August/September evenings when there's lightning but not much rain.

But I agree that it's nice to have actual *weather* happening instead of boring dry dry dry.

I drive all out in the fast lane on the 101 when it's pouring rain looking for those hydro-planing opportunities! Yippee!!!

I'll look for you on the news! Wave at the channel 5 news copter...

ETA: Bring your right arm to the square so I know it's you!

Might not seem like much to many, but we're glad to have it help with our drought. We ordinarily get that much rain a little here and there throughout all of March.

Only a few happy little claps of thunder here.

yAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

yAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

I LOVE IT .

Rain, lightning, thunder, hail here in rural San Diego.
Love it :)
And I didn't pay tithing...

Some big surf, should be huge tomorrow morning.

Where in SoCal are you? I'm concerned for my family.

This storm didn't seem to last long, just heavy downpour and thunder in the morning, but it's really windy now.
