it's raining - in Los Angeles!

after days of triple digit heat we woke up to real rain here in San Fernando Valley.  very unusual in September.   hopefully it is also raining in the area of the LaTuna fire on other side of the valley to help our exhausted firefighters.

@ms traditional, that is wonderful news!  I don't have relatives in your area but I have a brother who lives in the interior of British Columbia and the fires are very scary.  No rain there for almost three months.  

 

I hope ole you get a good long soak.  LM

@Lilysmom  thanks for the good wishes.  yes fires are horrible and to get some "wet" during fire season is a true blessing.  but.....it lasted about an hour.  all gone -  but we are grateful.

I live in Porter Ranch and woke up to damp outside. At least it's good for the fires. A friend of mine has a friend who lost her home in the fire.

My son lives about 8-10 minutes west of the Burbank airport.

 

He said there was no way the fires would get that far.

 

Anyone is LA hear about the Bob Hope airport? 

 

My son is flying home out of that airport this Thursday.

It woke me up early. I was so happy, then went back to sleep as the sound was so soothing. 

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.
