rubbish heap two Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 yeah, i can feel the wind all the way in portland. right now it's loud as fuck. called my dad in hayward, he said it's the type of weather down there where you don't go outside unless you absolutely have to, and even then... out of all the shitty weather, really strong wind has gotta be pretty close to the wost.

IOU Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I live in a cheaply made apartment, so when the wind kicks up it fucks my whole night up.

Guest shai_hulud Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 That's nothing, ABC. Just wait till you go through an El Nino year in California. It's like today, every day, for WEEKS on end. Today was a pretty healthy storm, but nothing to write home about. The last few years have been fairly disappointing for good storms in California. But, we get them. I'll find some flicks from 1998 and post them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest shai_hulud Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I take that back, ABC. I went for a walk around the neighborhood and shit looks kinda torn up. Couple trees got busted, and there's a little flooding here and there. No smashed BMWs yet. You still got the lead in that department. I called my friend to see if he wanted to go drink beer and play some shuffleboard, and he acted like I was touched in the head. I mean, it's nasty out, but it's not like a fucking hurricane or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleeping Pills Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 the fence in my sideyard got completely pwned, and the basketball hoop that sits out on my street fell back into our yard and took out a quarter of our tree. when i went out all of the stoplights weren't working, and on 80, right about when i hit richmond, on the other side of the freeway the traffic was straight up stopped completely. huge accident scattered across almost every lane, and caltrans and the police were there stopping traffic and cleaning shit up.

Poesia [ ] T Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I was going to make a thread about this also but didnt think the community would care what us californians call a storm. But shit was wild last night i live perched up on a hill and the wind fealt like it was about to break my windows last night and my skylights were getting hammered. No fallen trees around the hood but there arent any big trees up here. 2 of my clients today told me that they had no power, my ex also said she had no power all day. I been through el nino's but today this storm had a kick to hit that i havnt experienced. El nino's were more days on days and overall rain this was like bam. Shit is not as bad right now but i hear its still got some left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abracadabra Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 I mean, it's nasty out, but it's not like a fucking hurricane or anything. it was pretty nuts there for a minute. the winds were up over 60mph. it was over 70 in some places. in the mountains they were expecting 10ft of snow. not sure what the tally was at the end of it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abracadabra Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 T;5977244']I was going to make a thread about this also but didnt think the community would care what us californians call a storm. yeah, it was intense, but it's such a rare occurance it's really not worth mentioning. definately not the worst storm i've been in. i remember one time back home in australia the hail stones were coming down the size of baseballs. that was a pretty fucking incredible sight. i looked outside and everyting was white and was like "it doesn't snow here", then looked closer and freaked out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
