[pct-l] southern CA rain

[weathercarrot at hotmail.com (The Weathercarrot)]

The Campo and Lake Morena numbers may have been from several hours ago, or 
was it more recent? I'd be curious to see what they say in the morning. A 
lot of it was probably virga (evaporate before reaching the ground - another 
reason why higher elevations get more)....

Not that much rain, but the problem is it all comes in a few minutes. In the
last 24 hours Campo officially had none, Lake Morena 0.04", but San Felipe
Valley 0.59". The SD paper total had a photo of a truck stuck in mud up to
its windows on the road between Barrel Spring and Warner Springs. That road
has been closed over a day, with mud slides up to a quarter mile long. Also,
Highway 78 at Scissors Crossing was FLOODED an hour ago.
