Ya don't usually need a Jim Cantore to cover weather around here.

I’m not sure anyone needs a Jim Cantore to cover weather.

I don’t know what point he was making, but one of the many weather sayings often quoted by Middle Tennessee farmers predicted that lightning in January meant snow in May which would be extremely unusual as far south as Tennessee.
I only witnessed lightning in January once. It did snow that May.

Thunder snow is pretty cool, as well as rare.

I can only imagine thunder snow.

And there in lies my primary reason for not moving to Canada in 1968. I’m a real chicken-shit about cold weather.

Somebody should have told you about Vancouver.

Yeah, many of us less than worldly 18 year old alerbamians just didn’t know

So today is maybe the rainiest day ever in San Diego County. Oceanside got 2.5 inches; some places got almost 4. Look at the "river" in the pic below. Not a river. That's a freeway about 2 miles from us. Lot of flooding in several downtown locations and, in a change from the usual flooding only in low economic areas, high-dollar Coronado Island flooded too.

Great minds!

They have those. It's called a house boat on a trailer.
A real motorhome that works like a duck boat (without the flipping and sinking part) would be fun, though.

Deluge on Monday. Gonna have to replace those palms with ferns
Then, there are these:
Small Craft Advisory
High Surf Advisory
Flood Watch
Flood Advisory
River Flood Warning

Lots of flooding/mudslide vids up on YT.

Meanwhile, 62 tomorrow here . . . on Groundhog Day!
Zero snow so far, after zero all of last winter and I'm not sure how long before that

[O Really]

Rainy all day today, but much less damage in the area overall than last time. It's getting soggy, though, and I wouldn't be surprised that somebody has mudslides before it's dry again.

4" over 3 days is a lot for Oceanside and you're in the part of CA catching a break

All those atmospheric rivers last year and this storm may be worse. Crap.

Edit:

... The National Weather Service issued a rare hurricane-force wind warning for the Central Coast: Wind gusts up to 92 mph were possible from the Monterey Peninsula to the northern section of San Luis Obispo County....

Seriously?
