Los Angeles - we had the coolest summer on record here, and in late September the highest temperature ever recorded downtown - 113 before the sensors failed at noon - and now the heaviest rain in many decades – six days of it, with the last day bringing a massive storm – heavy rain all afternoon, and thunder and lightning too. And then it stopped, or slid off to points east. This is late afternoon – some rain still falling, but where it has cleared a bit, a double rainbow over the Hollywood Hills. We do high drama out here.

Rain on the balcony while taking the rainbow shots from right here –

Step out the front door. Down in the courtyard, rain in the pool, in spite of the rainbows out back –

Look up. That's west – out toward the Pacific, way out beyond Century City. Things are getting better. They always do.
