Because ALL Beaches were underwater and being washed away by the Kelvin Tide (1 to 2 feet the whole ocean rises as one) plus 15 foot waves plus a large high tide. Then I realized 1 to 2 feet vertically of sand likely will be washed away likely by Sunday night from these high tides on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Then I realized how much small cliff Sandstone erosion there would be this year because this is awful early to start this erosion that will start to take out trails on 5 to 10 foot tall sandstone cliffs about the beaches at most oceans around here. I don't think it will take out paved roads but it could take out many coastal trails that people will have to modify and also boardwalks various places will have to be modified too eventually all up and down the coast from likely Big Sur to the Oregon Border. Not sure what it will do north of there.
Also, water Temperatures are 9 or 10 degrees above normal too in this Super El Nino year!
I started likely around 1998 getting Netflix DVDs in the mail because it was cheaper and more convenient than driving to Blockbuster then. You could order the movies you wanted online for a set fee per month rather than pay a certain amount each time you rented a movie from Blockbuster. So, this was much more reasonable and cost efficient (as long as you knew what movie you wanted to watch next).
By the way Netflix started it's DVD mail in monthly fee service in 1998. But, it took until streaming became a big thing at Netflix starting in 2007 until 2014 before Blockbuster went out of business over most of the U.S.

Or whenever we started Streaming? 2007 is when Netflix started streaming by the way (I just looked it up). Before then I like many of you got my DVDs from them in a paper envelope. I always wondered how they could send these things through the mail without destroying the DVD's but somehow they mostly stayed okay?
So, anyway this movie came out in 2015 so I'm not entirely sure whether I saw it or not (having seen most Christmas Movies (However, my wife likes Hallmark movies and mostly I can't watch those unless a big name star (usually female is in it that I recognize) then I will make the effort to see that movie IF I can handle the first 10 minutes. Yes. This is one way we figure out how if we want to watch a movie or not which is to watch the first 10 minutes. If it doesn't go the way we want it to we usually don't watch it (even if we had to pay for it). But, most classic old movies we have seen already so paying for those we usually know exactly what we are getting. My wife says she wants to see "Singing in the Rain(1952) with Debbie Reynolds and Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor again too!
