Sounds like a winter storm we would see in January or February. The rare, month of may, shift from heat wave to “winter-like” storm brought a mix of extreme weather to Southern California today. News and photos links provided below.

What a wild day John. Sure glad we were not in the path of the tornado though at times I thought we were with all the wind we had.

Yea, Jim tornadoes aren’t good. I didn’t think it was to windy yesterday? Compared to weeks past, yesterday’s winds were relatively calm. Boy, I’m certainly enjoying the cool overcast weather! I’m going camping this weekend up in the San Jacinto Mountains for the first time this year, I think i’m going to freeze!
