That afternoon: Storms, tornados, floodings, water spouts, huge waves coming in from the ocean, landslide warnings! Hah!
She has let me stay at her place since then. No way I can ever repay this kindness and hospitality! ><

Hopefully the worst of the storms will have passed by tomorrow (friday) morning so I can move on down towards San Clemente, San Diego then either into the desert regions (my original plan) or down to Mexico (plan B) and come back to SoCal when it gets a bit warmer.

Hoping there's none of you stuck out there in this weather. Be careful!
To get to the desert from San Diego you need to go over the coastal mountains. The snow is now (Thurs night) down to 4000 feet. You might not get through. Next week more storms are on the way. Sorry. Weather this severe is a bit unusual.
