@weltrichia.bsky.sociali’ve been enjoying this weather, well compared to the freaking heat waves, maybe #heatDome that was around #SoCal last week, & now it’s been raining 🌧️ ☔️ for 3 days & after very high, over 100° F weather, i’d rather this somewhat cold rainy weather than THAT! Is this #HurricaneRachel, her doing?
@voteblu4dogs.bsky.socialChecking out the damage after #HurricaneRachel. Vegas got it's yearly rainfall over night. 2.95" doesn't sound like much but this is huge for us.
@nationaldesk.bsky.socialFormer Tropical Storm Rachel's waves hit Southern California Sunday. NHC says water levels ran up to 1.5 ft above predictions.

@seanews.bsky.social🚨Hurricane #Rachel is currently off the coast of Mexico with 105 mph winds and massive 35ft seas. Though tracking west right now, models show a bizarre U-turn could send her remnants straight toward San Diego and LA next week.
