    It's from the fire. 14Fwy, Sierra Hwy and Golden Valley are all closed. The backup is bad into the San Fernando Valley.

    Some are thinking they are taking a shortcut thru Little Tujunga / Sand Canyon are getting stuck (lower right).

    What happens is big rigs try to take it but it's way to windy and they bottle up traffic for miles.

    On foot but that's a long hike. The firebreaks have gates on them.

    Traffic nightmare !!!!

    Is it windy at your location ???? , the wind here has been very strong the last few hours . I'm seeing 20mph gusts with blowing sand and it's still warm here at 107°

    Nothing like the sound of sand being blown onto your vehicle at a stop light

    It's a little breezy 1-4mph winds. At least the smoke cleared out. It cooled from 102* down to 96* at the moment.

    Not a lot of rain so far - driveway is still polka dotted - but there's been plenty of wind and lightning. Good news is the temp dropped from 88 to 65 with the arrival of the storm. All windows are open in my place, cooled off more in here in the last 10 minutes than my AC did all day :laugh: might actually get to sleep in the house tonight!

    Morning.

    Dam steering rack replacements suck the big one for me.
    Long overhead work is not my friend.

    At least this one is installed correctly and not an accident waiting to happen.
    Dam scary shit...
    If I’m lucky I’ll get more ground work today.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    Good morning.


    HBD @Bluegrass Taco I hope you have a great day Bill!

    The rain hit us here yesterday. I put out some mid-summer fertilizer beforehand, but it was a hard rain and probably washed it down the creek. Expected to be 90 here, and humidity around 60%, so a decent August day.

    Daughter is getting her college stuff ready for move in this Saturday. We have an appointment for 90 minutes to move her in the dorm. She’s excited to get back to school and I’m excited for her. She did very well her first year, well 3/4 year, on campus, and I have no doubt that she will continue to do well.

    Enjoy the day-stay safe out there.

    So sitting outside the stab and jab and finger poke.

    Good thing I took a poop Before I got here.
