at our work (cal state hayward), word as passed down from the top that CHP is recommending people to go home NOW since the weather is gonna get worse...

looks like the storm of the century is happening for the next 48 hours...

 

Whoa. I hope it lightens up. I might need to make adjustments for my travel up to Davis on Saturday.

 

I hope it does, just 'cause it's been a total letdown so far. Just a smattering or rain and a light breeze; this'll never cover PG&E cutting power to 40,000 people...

 

i just watched the news, and it reported that winds will be as high as 70 mph.

 

news reports say friday morning commute will suck as heck.

plus from 8am fri to 8am sat, going up to tahoe WILL BE more suckier. road closures predicted. white outs... etc...

 

sounds like the movie Twister outside, all i hear are windchimes

 

I heard a cow

 

I was just reading at weather.com that winds up to 145 tommarow at some of the higher passes. wtf 145

 

winds are howling already

 

where I used to live a normal winter was 120 plus winds but areas that are not used to that will have trees going down. Keep your eyes out and hands on the wheel if you are out driving in it. Have candles handy incase power does go out.

 

just drove from SF to Redwood City, man this storm is nuts. the winds were pushing me around like crazy and there were sketchy puddles everywhere. granted this was from 4:15am-5am...

drive safe on your commute this morning everyone. it's gonna be a nutty weekend.

 

just got back from driving to get coffee, be very careful. this storm sucks and porTURBOer is right about the random puddles and high winds.

 

wasn't too bad this morning for me.. SJ->Santa Clara...

 

san jose area they said will hit hardest around noon.

 

thanks! good to know. I guess no eating out today...
