Storm now from San Diego to Portland

And this now includes Northern Mexico, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Arizona and Idaho. It's really hitting especially the San Francisco Bay area right now.

However, the up to 50 mph gusts are supposed to hit from 1 pm Friday to 1 Pm Saturday. If there are power outages it is most likely to occur during these times from falling coastal trees especially. 

The storm now reaches from Salem, Oregon to Chihuahua, Mexico

 It's also in New Mexico and Arizona and Utah and Nevada and a little into Idaho too. My wife tells me that total there are 3 storms to hit by Wednesday at least here in California but likely other places too. However, these are warm pineapple express storms that don't seem to be bringing much snow except for really high altitudes.

The winds are supposed to really pick up to tomorrow through Monday and go back down on Tuesday. I'm hoping we don't lose power again. More people in my county lost power last week than I have ever seen before at a much earlier date than I have ever seen before too.

Normally we only lose power from about Mid January to the end of March 1 day to a week or two depending upon the year.

1 year we lost many trees on a nearby Golf Course from the winds off the Ocean.
