More fear mongering the media wants you in fear no matter what!! Pussification of America going strong!!!
Florida and Texas are laughing at us here out west!!!
I think the people in Maui may disagree. Doesn’t hurt to be prepared just in case. 🤷🤔😉

So the great flood of 83 to hit tucson was caused by the left overs of a tropical storm. It fucked a lot up by rain alone. This could create a similar circumstance to that storm if it goes more east

I'm sure there is a lot more rain infrastructure than 40 years ago.

Just now out walking the dog and a steam bath rolled across the valley. Went from cool, low humidity to hot and foggy.

As I sit here outside drinking my coffee I realize how quite it is. Usually it's loud as hell with birds chirping but not today, they are quite. Seen just a couple flyby and that's it.

I'm guessing it's not going to be as bad as there saying. Telling us to stay home yet the Chargers Saints game is still being played at Sofi. Yea, it's a dome but there now putting thousands of people on the roads that would otherwise stay home. I'll be at the game.😁😁

I have the 450 ready for a little urban assault if it floods tomorrow, generally my street turns into a river, might as well use the bike to make sure we can get out

What part of town are you in?
Don't know if you remember, but 20 years ago yesterday that massive flooding happened in Vegas. Recues, pulling people out of cars, etc. Mainly west side

I grew up on the east side, moved way out to the middle of nowhere that is now called mountains edge, then up to Potosi, after that moved around a lot (bachelor days), and now reside in the northwest part of the valley. They valley has really done a lot to improve flooding, but it seems like they fix one thing and the water goes somewhere else.

My grandpa told me that in the 70s the Army Core of Engineers wanted to build a flood channel system through the entire valley, and the citizens voted down the 2 million dollar proposal. I'm kind of glad it never happened, because flood channels have kept me busy over the years lol.

Watching the projection on news now Barstow, death Valley and probably I 15 between that location is going to get hammered. I won’t be surprised if it closes part of I 15. Maybe 6 inches+.

Lol, no like the real east side, areas you don't visit anymore except those stubborn family members that refuse to leave the hood.

@gqchris knows what I'm talking about

A heavy mist here in the NW corner of Huntington Beach. I'm not worried about "the storm", but the asshole drifters racing around the business tract. That's what's going to take my power down.
