In reply to the discussion: SoCal DUers' Hilary Check In [View all]Iggo
(49,052 posts)76. 1:30-ish pm; Whittier (about 20 miles outside the center of downtown Los Angeles)
So far, its just a medium rainy day. Intermittent, light to somewhere between medium and heavy rain most of the morning. Warm and muggy, so for the most part its rain where you can stand out there and say, Ah, this feels good!
That should change over the next hour or so. Thunderstorms are coming, and the wind hasnt picked up yet, the rain is still falling straight down, and like I said, lightly enough to enjoy for a few minutes. Its coming, though
lol.
