Norbert impact in San Diego region
Not one drop of rain on the coast. Pretty clouds and sunset Sunday night.
Thundershowers and flash flooding to the east.
We continue to be parched...

On the CBS nightly news, Phoenix and Tucson were flooded and people were getting around in kayaks; there were also 2 deaths of people trapped in their
cars and many cars on I-10 were underwater. The weatherman attributed this to Norbert.

norbert left overs
It rained in Borrego Springs on Sunday, not hard but steady for a bit. The mountains west of us got sluiced pretty well and there was a lot of
lightning in the Santa Rosas early Monday with rain later in the day.

I15 north of Las Vegas into St George is washed out. Pavement gone. It will be closed for 3 or 4 days. The detour is a 2 lane county road around the
Virgin River gorge. It's going to add hours and hours to the trip. Parking lot at my office in Salt Lake City was flowing over the curbs. Not a very
wide spread storm cell but if you were under it it was buckets.

THAT ^^ is an understatement.
I heard it rained 6 inches in Phoenix- and if the drivers there are like drivers here when it rains... may god have mercy on their souls.
(my Flagstaff family members were happy to be 7000 feet above hi tide.)
Flash flood warnings for eastern SD county flashed Sunday PM, but here on the coast we are dry dry dry...gasp. Please send water!
(Not 6 inches, but maybe 1 or 2? My trees are hurting...)

Whoaaa............... good thing I got to Mesquite from San Diego Sunday. Sunday had everything from heavy rain, to dust storms, to huge traffic jams
north and south on 15. Made it to Escalante Ut., Monday evening and set up camp just before the storm hit. Today going from Escalante to Green River,
it looked clear in Hanksville but there was one spot of black sky. Yup, right on Green River!! So now I sit in a dumpy Motel 6 instead of camping on
the Green River!!

Looks like the high pressure ridge off SoCal kept the remnants of Norbert from coming north. It was then caught up in the southern Jet Stream and
carried east across northern Baja to the desert regions. Also looks like the ridge might be pushing the remnants back south a bit.
