la Nina rears her ugly head

I normally ride my bike to work, but not in this weather. I drove all last week and probably next week too. I'm glad I'm not working this weekend so I can stay home and make sure my yard, or garage, doesn't flood. We have this drain across our backyard and the drains need to be checked regularly. In the last storm, I had to help my father-in-law clear this drain at 3 am. Luckily, I didn't have work that day. On the clear and dry mornings, I have been able to ride my scooter down to school with my kid. That's been a blast! The school is all down hill from our house, so riding in wet weather can be really dangerous. We ride the brakes half way there.

It's really coming down here now. About 2 inches overnight and some pretty strong winds. I had about an inch from the previous day, so won't need to water the lawn for a while.

So far for this rain season, I measured 40.1". And more is on the way.
21-22 season: 28.4"
20-21 season: 10.5" - yikes!, no wonder there were so many fires.
19-20 season: 22.9"
Average around here is about 35"
 
Pineapple moisture stays near Hawaii. Hopefully it will keep feeding storms as they hit the west coast.
