Yep may not make it myself. It's a brisk 62 here in LA tonight and foggy. Dying cuz it's so cold. Might need to borrow a parka from one of you northerners.

We might crack 75 here tomorrow during the day. Brace yourselves for the unbearable temps.

By the water. Manhattan Beach area, lol.

It doesn't go over 80 in the summer and doesn't drop below 55 in the winter. 5 miles into the city though and that 80 will turn into a 95-100 degrees in the summer however, lol.

You're close to all the drag strips though and track. The way it breaks down is, you're closer to the fires and I'm closer to the tsunami, lol. Non-locals freak out at all the tsunami evacuation route markers around here. I'll snap a pic tomorrow

Looks like it's going to hit west of you. Are you hunkering down? Bugging out?

You be safe out there with the fam. If you see a flying cow, you've gone too far. Turn around quickly!!

I didn't realize how bad it is. All of you near that stay hunkered down and stay safe. Good vibes your way.

It's been so hot here that my power conditioner has been showing ~ 112-113v regularly. Usually I am at ~121v.

Yeah, it's not good at all. This girl is a brute. We are in for a wild ride. It's just a shame they couldn't get contraflow into place. I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried. This will be a true test I think of flood protection they've been building since Katrina.

Stay safe, Rebekah.

I'm filling up my bathtubs now. Wind is picking up significantly at my house, as I'm sure it is at yours.

I wasn't scared last night, but this morning, I'm actually really really worried to be going through this alone.
