The rain is going to hang out this weekend but perhaps it will give everyone a chance to catch up on their TV shows, books, celebrity gossip and hot
coco mix. A subscriber sent in a photo of a mail truck that caught fire, but thankfully no one was hurt and our letters to Santa were not affected. Stay dry
Santa Barbara, it's going to be a wet weekend.
In the news: the rain may be the cause for multiple traffic accidents on our local streets, power outages have been reported on the Riviera and
Carpinteria, and the zoo welcomes two young female African lions. Read these stories and more, below.
