Back to California

Rained some last night but today started crystal clear with bright sun.  Drove south on US 95 to Yuma and then west to El Centro.  Nice drive with beautiful weather the whole way.  The third and biggest storm to hit California this week is headed this way now.  Started to cloud up late this afternoon and rain is just starting.  Kind of funny watching local news here.  They are giving instructions on how people should deal with the rain and wind.  Take in outside furniture and toys,  don’t drive in to low areas with water in them, drive slowly, etc.  Stuff that is second nature to most people but they don’t get much weather here.  Advice for getting car ready for rain:  check wiper blades (and I presume rolling up windows would be good too).

El Centro is the winter training area for the Blue Angels Navy flying team.  As we drove in to town  they flew over us in a tight diamond formation.  Cool.
