Well, down on the coastal plain in Orange County, Hilary pretty much turned out to be a nothing burger. The damage you might see in the news is all in the hills and canyons and out in the desert, far from us. We got 2" or 3" of rain spread throughout the day so it had plenty of time to run off without flooding. The wind wasn't much where we were either. We had worse storms last winter. And the earthquake epicenter was 100 miles from us. We just felt a wiggly little nudge. Thank you all for your concern.
This is only the 3rd time since they've been keeping records that a hurricane has held together long enough to reach Southern California. The last one was in 1939 (lots of damage!), and before that was 1885. It will "only" be a tropical storm when it gets here, but so were the last two.
The storm was shown on our news channels here in the UK, tough conditions
scary stuff.
DAN!!!! oh my I've been watching out your way - gonna be a rough night Sunday! Take care & keep us posted.
