We had a blizzard last night, not quite a foot of new snow by this morning. It was a white-out around midnight.

Hey Michelle! I talked to my son last night and he told me that he and his wife had put their shoes on (in case of broken glass,) when the quake first hit. (That means they were petrified.) He described it as being over a full minute of pretty intense shaking in the vertical plane!

He was surprised at how little damage was reported. (They live in "old town, San Diego.)

A few inches of new snow this morning.

What is this?

Snow every day in April so far............. And most days in March.

Not that it amounts to much.

Hey everyone, no snow here! Sunny and high of 80.

Bruce I was driving during the actual quake, somewhere between Indio and Brawley so I didn't really notice it then, but the aftershocks have kept up. Last one I noticed was at 9:10 last night.

I remember driving during one of the bigger quakes in the eighties. I thought someone had loosened my lug nuts! Couldn't figure it out until I saw big plate glass windows exploding into the street.

Good afternoon everyone. Lots of wind with the threat of dropping something here.

That's pretty much my problem too. I need a garage. It is the reason I have not started tearing my 'stangs motor apart yet. With the wind I do not want to be building it with all the dust and dirt blowing around.

Hi Jeff!

Yeah Burce I think I noticed smething like that at the time now that I think about it, but the truck vibrates at certain speed so I didn't think anything of it.
