Microburst Storm Causes Damage to Waterfront

Rainfall map on the County website has good reporting--so variable, really depends on where you were in town how much it rained. Normal for thunderstorms. Here's the link:

Off of East Alamar .15 in maybe 10 to 20 minutes. Big drops and like 30 seconds of hail. Crazy fun and temp drop of 20 degrees.

This is where I check rainfall:

Good for you with your insulting comment. The simple fact is that common sense is required to keep oneself and loved ones safe with dangerous weather or anything else harmful for that matter. When the sky turns dark on the horizon, it's time to get off the water and off the beach. I was on east beach prior this event happening. I warned numerous folks to pick up and go for safety sake. Why the sky gets dark, pack up the umbrella, get inside. Luckily, no one was seriously injured by flying "fun gear" because of lack of COMMON SENSE! Perhaps, they were just smoking dope and enjoying the sight of approaching lightning and black clouds on the beach and water!

Wow, you really are new to SB. Common sense is based on common experiences. A weather situation such as what happened has NEVER happened here, at least not that any of us can remember. So no, it's NOT "common sense" in this area to run for cover at the sight of dark clouds at the beach. Look, maybe wherever you are from it is, but in your new town, it's not. Don't be "that person" please.

Wow is right! When you see black clouds rolling in and lightning, you get off the water, beach, mountain, golf course, or wherever! You don't cross the street when you see a wave of traffic speeding towards you, do you? Common sense is not an instinct based upon past experience alone. Common sense is good judgement in practical matters!

"A few hours ago my family and I left the Children's hospital in LA. Alyssa is progressing, very slowly, but nonetheless progressing. Her next surgery was moved to tomorrow, and will undergo a lot of reconstructive cosmetic surgeries to get her bones back in the correct places, on top off a very long head/skull surgery. She is currently off her breathing tube and able to breath on her own a lot better, but will be placed back on it during and after her surgery tomorrow. She is able to show small head nods and very little movements in her fingers and toes. She is beginning to verbalize small phrases and is able to detect her parents, and family members voices. Her eyes are still swollen so very hard for her to open. We are continuing to pray for our little trooper, and keep her in very positive high spirits going into her following surgeries. Her parents, my family and I would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to show support through phones calls, text messages, and donations. Thank you all, this is beyond anything we expected and are so grateful. "

she's in my prayers. Alyssa get well soon. You're a survivor !
