Jen left for Columbus, Ohio this morning for a week of work. Needless to say she was not particularly excited about getting on another plane, as we only got back from Australia just last Sunday. By the time she gets home on Friday she will have spent 5 of the last 6 weeks away from home.
The forecast for Columbus is to be either marginally above or below freezing all week, with snow possible. Normally, that is a very bitter pill to swallow, when southern California is usually in the mid 60s to low 70s (18 to 22°C) this time of year. However, we are expecting a winter storm tonight through Wednesday with 2 feet of snow on the mountains tonight alone and rain and wind down where we live and cold temperatures. The thermostat in the house actually turned the heater on tonight. Crazy!
Of course the biggest problem about this storm is that all of the areas that were burnt in the fires at the end of November are now super susceptible to landslides if we get enough rain because all of the vegetation is gone. So the folks who were lucky enough to have their houses spared during the fires were all on the news tonight sandbagging their houses in hopes of saving them yet again.
