Rainbow and UH OH

Yesterday was this gorgeous rainbow

Full side to side and a double! 

And the...

UH OH

Looks like my kiddos and I are both in for some 

"Weather" with a capital W.

Constant boomies, and alerts on radio,

tv and phones.

Here in Vegas many of the houseless

live in massive storm drains and the local 

emergency folks have been trying to move them

 and all their belongings ( including furniture etc) 

out of there as quickly 

as possible so that their belongings 

don't wash out and block 

small drains. Teams have been going all

 over the city clearing drains of debris,

as much as they can.

Even a light sustained rain here can cause serious

flooding, and foolish tourists and idiot locals

do NOT heed warnings and have to be rescued

or worse. 

When I first moved here in the 70's, it was common

 for many of the parking garages to flood entirely,

and even grand hotels to have dripping water 

during storms. All the streets flooded 

but decades of building water retention basins 

solved a good bit. The basins were used as parks and 

soccer fields. Win Win 

The LA folks are also worried about high winds

and mud slides. My neighbor has a dangerous, 

nearly dead, pine tree that concerns me.

It could take off the front of my house.

We shall see.

Hopefully the concern is a reaction to the horrors

of HI and BC.

Let's see what all the climate deniers 

have to say about a tropical storm almost in Vegas?

Although it will no longer be a tropical here, but it 

will be the first to hit CA since 1939.

I tried unsuccessfully to load a video of Walter 

on here, but it is on my IG if you love him.

Stay safe - and Be prepared,

not just when emergencies loom,

but always, every day.

Said it Best-

  I have loved these two for years

 Margaret and Helen

We've all read, listened, and watched 

the insanity for far too many years.

These two are saying what I have been ranting 

to anyone who will listen, but they are funnier than I,

which it makes it more frightening and 

important with all that is at stake. 

It's worth a read- honest
