Some parts of S. A. must have gotten hit pretty bad. I went to a gardening event early today in S. A.. Rained all the way there and several hours afterward, then finally stopped. I didn't see the bad flooding, but some traffic signals were out...ever come to a very large city intersection, with no signals, and traffic pretty much reverts to a 4-way stop kind of pattern? It's pretty bizarre! Out here, we've had maybe 1.6" over the last couple of days. I don't envy them the flood damage, but oh man, if only some genius could figure out how to spread rain out more, there'd be less flooding. I got rid of some of my plants today, but being unwilling to drive in the heavy rain again, I stayed too long and came home with some new plants. That's not how it was supposed to work!
