Reg Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Rain occasionally gets light here but never fully stops. Getting hammered by wind since the "eye" of Hilary passed us earlier in the afternoon, though. 2.31" and still rising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan the Weatherman Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) It is rather windy right now here in Orange with moderate to somewhat heavy rain continuing. I have my window open a bit and can really hear the wind howling through the trees. Edited August 21, 2023 by Dan the Weatherman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been a very interesting event for Socal, as summer rain in the coastal areas, especially to this magnitude, is quite rare here! Hopefully the PNW gets some beneficial rains soon to help improve the air quality and help to extinguish the fires in the region!

Anti Marine Layer Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Not much of a microclimate day today as pretty much everywhere from the coast to the desert was rainy and in the mid-upper 70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reg Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Winds are finally calming. No big gusts in about an hour. Rain has tapered off to a light, but continuous mist. 2.33" yesterday, another .02" since midnight. Temperature was strange yesterday. The high temperature was at 12:00 AM and the low temperature was at 11:59 PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not, and I think the unexpectedly fast movement of the low was the cause of that. It was supposed to be a 2-day event and only ended up being one day. There were definitely still impacts, particularly in the deserts where mud and debris in the roads still has some major highways closed.

Hilary accelerated upon making landfall and continued speeding up for a while. We didn't get the convection that was expected, although the deserts did. Also, somehow I missed this on Sunday afternoon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan the Weatherman Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 2.75" fell here in Orange from late Saturday night August 19 to late Sunday night / very early Monday morning August 21 from Hilary. This is the largest one storm total I have ever had during the month of August. The amount actually exceeded the 2" to 2.5" total forecast for my area, although I believe 2"-3" were forecast at one point. The remnants of Dolores in July 2015 was quite impressive, too, and that was the wettest July total I have recorded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some years ago, back on AccuWeather forums - we had a major winter storm pass through here in SoCal, and about 30 or 40 eastern US members were all watching our California Wx thread but none of them were saying anything (AccuWeather had a feature where you could see members watching a thread). Our storm was apparently expected to have a major effect on them as it passed through the continental US and they wanted to know how we Californians were dealing with it and watch our OBS. None of them wanted to speak to us, though. Interesting from our perspective. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
