All week we’ve been getting the rain we wanted so much the last few years. I know floods and snowstorms are plaguing much of the state, but here it’s just wet. I love watching the storms roll through the bay.
Clouds drive westward.
Waves pound shoreward.
It’s not raining underwater.
It’s been awhile since I posted a rant so here’s a short one, just before we get to the season of good will. I can’t understand why the media and the ordinary folk around are so excited about what seems to me a perfectly normal and much needed rainstorm. We used to have these all the time. But everybody’s yammering about the terrible storm.
I’m sure the places that usually flood will flood, mud will slide, sink holes will appear, people will forget they need to take extra care on the road and there will be massive accidents on the freeway. In short, it’s a normal California winter day. Tomorrow I want to take a look at the surf on Ocean Beach.
