Default Insane California Weather

The weather is INSANE right now.

I hope everyone is SUPER SAFE out there today and tonight.

I already had a handful of crap happen trying to get home from school.


1. Two tornadoes touched down in the field of my collegeand also
by another field across from my community / March Air Force Base.

2. My school is based at the bottom of massive mini-mountains and a river
of water came shooting down as we stepped out of class. My professor in
his lifted jeep gave us all rides to our cars cause the entire campus
and parking lot is literally flooded.

3. Hail bigger than golf *****. It's still going on right now and it literally
looks like it's snowing at my house. I got hit in the face by a nasty one too.

4. My entire neighborhood is flooded up to the middle of my shins.

5. The huge ___ mountain across from my house had JUST had a
rock / mudslide that happened 10 minutes ago.

I agree with Chels. It did felt like "day after 2morrow" rain, wind, tornado/water funnels, hail. The storm system that is in USA does look scary, =/

Inland Empire is going through some crazy ish.

My post from the other thread regarding weather:
Same thing out here in Riverside.
Last week it was 100+ for a while, dance practice at night was hell. Wearing shorts and a t-shirt at 2AM, and I'm still sweating, just standing there.

Dust storms blowing everywhere; my allergies were hating the weather.

Now, this week has had nice days, but freezing nights. I'm wearing sweats and a sweater at practice and I'm still cold.

And what else?
It started to rain this morning, but then it was nice and sunny for a couple of hours.
Then, it started pouring cats and dogs, and a thunderstorm comes into town. Lightning would strike just down the street, and the thunder would crack just a second later.
Some trees around here fell from the lightning.

Oh, we had a surprise guest as well.
In the city next to me, a tornado whipped up!

I don't think SoCal and tornadoes are normally associated..

What's up with the weather?
Feels like the world is coming to an end, lol.

It was 117 at my work the other day, today it is only 69 as I post this. Wish it would stay like this for the rest of the summer, but I have no such luck. I guess I need to enjoy it while it is here. Too bad it is windy and overcast, if it was just overcast and cool I would wash/wax. With the wind I would just be rubbing dust into the car.
