West Coast Storm !


West Coast Storm !, originally uploaded by angryparsnip.

West Coast Storm is coming . . . .

Lots of weather coming to Arizona, snow and rain all over the state
and we need it ! In the north Flagstaff is snowed in and the south we
are getting rain !

Trying to get some pictures of the snowy mountains but the low hanging
clouds are blocking the views .
Today the Catalina Mountains will get around 8 inches of snow and
tomorrow 16 inches. Needless to said no traveling up the mountain till
Sunday.

It has been raining off and on in the valley/foothills all morning
that is good news for us but the bad news is the storm is bringing
winds of 40 mph with gust up to 65 mph.
Yikes ! As one NBC weather reporter use to say " tie down the trash
can and small dogs".
Love the rain not really happy with the wind.

  1. I hope your roof is well secured. Better keep those two little black square dogs inside, too. Wind is the only weather condition I can't cope with, though I quite like the sound of it if I'm safely inside. Keep safe, X

    Oh Thanks... My home is on top of a rise so I get the winds full force... so far so good.
    I like the breeze and wind just not the kind that can knock you over.
    I sent you a note, hope it can make there with all the bad weather on both sides of the ocean.

  3. I hate it when the French window in the bedroom bursts open. And I'm always the one to get out of bed to close it.

    We had French Doors at the house by the ocean and sometimes the rain would hit the door horizontal and the door would burst open, always at 2 AM !
