... in Southern California

We had weather this morning! No seriously, more than a little precipitation - a thunder storm! (Pic at left was just the start.) It was the sort of thing that had us dancing in the streets in sodden rapture when we were kids. Our local radar suggests a little storm, with lots of flashing and crashing and banging, formed just above us.
Turns out we got half an inch, most unusual. Other freak storms in Catalina and Los Angeles today were more dangerous; you might have heard that a man was killed and a dozen others injured by four lightning bolts hitting sea and sand near the pier at Venice Beach.
