It’s Thursday
During the Easter/Spring Break period so we had the usual Tornado Watch, Severe Thunderstorm Warning, High Surf advisory, Rip Tide advisory … all of the usual.
It didn’t really rain, it was more like living on the bottom floor of 10 story apartment building and everyone threw their dishwater out the window at the same time. There were red glows that I interpreted as cars on the road, but I couldn’t actually see individual lights, or the outlines to determine what kind of vehicles they were. It wasn’t that the street was flooded – the air was flooded.
This really doesn’t help the tourism industry. Student loan costs had already killed the concept of going somewhere for spring break for a lot of students, so the weather just made a bad situation worse.

We almost had rain a few days ago…. If we don’t have cloud cover, we shoot straight up into the high 80s. I thought El Nino meant rain for us not Florida!
It should mean rain, but a blocking ridge of high pressure keeps forming and pushing the storms north. That’s why is was so warm at the start of the Iditarod – a storm system that should have gone into California got push up to the Gulf of Alaska.
