It rained pretty hard in Havasu early this morning around 3am, sounded like maybe hail too at a certain point

Prescott Valley checking in:
25 degrees with about 4" of snow...that came in hot with the wind at about 3am. The roads are sketchy AF, 3 of 4 school districts called snow days...due to ice. Community College called it, but Embry Riddle says get there by noon.

@Nanu/Nanu be careful out there! Heard the wind took down a bunch of lines last night. With people on the roads, bumper cars may do more:confused:

Something like 15 overturns on I40...

Crazy wind at the river since early last night and even stronger right now, constant gusts up to 70mph, feels like much more than that. Crazy wind and snow, the 40 is closed from Kingman to New Mexico earlier today and they don't know when it will reopen.

about 16" overnight in Draper Utah, and it's still coming down. Bring it! Predicting up to 48" in the mountains.

Our area is now saying 3.75” of rain Friday. There’s loaders and excavators all over the canyons trying to clear drains lol.

Can you imagine?!?! I've made that trip one time in an 18' ski boat and it was questionable if we were going to make it back to Long Beach!!! LMAO!!!
That's nuts. we tried in our 18' ski boat way back when, got about half way and just decided it was not worth it. sketchy to say the least.

Long story short, an acquaintance asked if we wanted to go fish Catalina, so of course I jumped at the chance. I jammed down to Huntington Beach the night before, and slept at a relatives house so I'd be at the harbor first thing in the morning.

The next morning, I called the guy with the boat and asked him where to meet up. He said to meet him at the gas station and he would be "Driving his Jeep Wrangler."

That comment alone should have been my first clue, that the boat wasn't a "Big boat."

🤣

Blowing like hell here in Blythe, been blowing since yesterday.

Around 11 last night responded to traffic accident on the 10 just east of desert center, wind and sand so bad enough that we were down to 20 mph on the freeway. I don't mind the wind, it's the blowing sand that sucks

I heard it, It was pouring and lots of wind. When I checked my rain gauges this morning almost nothing, then I realized horizontal rain don't really fill the gauges.😅

Not much sleep last night up on the bluff in CDM... my 7'x8' glass panes were flexing like never before so I put furniture up against windows best I could and held my breath till 4am. Deck furniture blowing everywhere and no idea where the firepit cover got to lol. We survived and its still moving pretty good

@monkeyswrench our standby crews were out working last night. Like you said lines and poles down all over. We are looking for a way into a pole in Dewey. Just braced this pole up at galpin ford.

Can't believe we've still got power around Newport.... I've been here 32 years and maybe only got hit this good once prior.

Had a heat wave today. Hit 8 degrees

Weekend is supposed to be nice. 50 degrees. Gonna put my shorts back on and wash all the mag-chloride off the car in the driveway.

Ordered me an underbody sprayer adapter, for my pressure washer. Hope it shows up. The mag-chloride shit they put on the roads out here really fuks up the underside of a vehicle. Really screws up anything aluminum.
