STORM WATCH!

So the big news in San Diego this week is the "big winter storm" that is going to hit late tomorrow night...a whole 1-2 inches is expected on the coast!!!  This shows how lame our weather is here in southern california...not that Im saying I dislike mid70s-low80s and sunny but you know it would be nice to mix it up a lil.  I mean when we get any sort of thunderstorms they are always in the mountains, but I do have to say I have a pretty awesome room set-up b/c when we do get those storms I flip over in my bed, open the shutter and watch the show.  I think the craziest weather I've seen in SD in awhile was a couple winters ago when we had a pretty strong storm role through.  my parents and I were in Subway and there was a thunderstorm outside.  I saw the flash of lightening and I started to count to see how far away it was but before I could start counting the building shook.  That doesnt usually happen in Chula Vista.  Then we got in the car and look at the temp only to see it say 45 degrees...now thats reallllly cold for the winter...in the middle of the day.  We were going to meet my sister, but we actually went home and changed into our "paris/NY" clothes.  Cold to us is like 60....in fact we had our heater on this evening and it wasnt really cold.  The forcast says its going to be in the 50s this weekend so I will be getting my snow gear out (actually I dont really have snow gear....hmmm)

On top of all that my dad decided he wanted to watch "Storm Chasers" tonight!  I wanted to pee my pants seeing some of those storms.  Seriouslly, after watching shows like that I thank my lucky stars that I live in, "sweet home san diego"
