if you were on the bridge its probably water falling off the bridge itself above you and not actual raindrops if you thought they were going to break your windshield

i love this weather though and love driving in it as well

I love driving in the rain..haaa. I couldn't help myself last night from putting it side ways a few times..haaa.

Althought I do hate being around other drivers in the rain. People freak out.

Yeah the rain is pretty hectic though. Suppose to continue all the way through the weekend. Stoked though. So much snow is falling. I wish I could go ride it but my damned knee..errrr.

Most of the fat rain drops were at the bridge where there were things over me... but also on the clear areas too!

This weather is crazy. There was a small tornado in Santa Rosa last night. Crazy.

I drove local roads home from work cuz the rain was so bad last night...

RWD + not great driver = potential for death.

Oh & to the asstard in the white Cavalier that did a fly by on my way to work in the pouring rain, I hope you spin & crash & catch your car on fire & burn to death. (I was going 70mph, he/she flew by going at least 85mph while pouring rain)

Heard Heavenly got something like 5 feet of snow. Anybody think the crazy weather had anything to do with the earthquake?

Referring to the weather here, yes, its normal. But, over and inch of rain in less than an hour in San Fran yesterday, close to 5 inches of rain in southern california yesterday and 90 whales in three different pods beaching themselves on the coast of Austrailia is a bit extreme.
