I got another 1/2 inch after reporting the last inch. At a bit before midnight, it snowed. I know, I was out in it, filling the gennie so I could work for a few more hours. Now, at 1 pm – the wind continues to howl, as it has all morning long. There is a bit of rain, on and off, but nothing heavy.

BTW, power line went down north of Andrew Molera, and power is expected to be out in Big Sur Valley most, if not all, of the day.

  • Horrendous drive back north from the school. Driving rain, low visibility, and insane wind gusts. Estimated sustained winds over gale force with full storm-force gusts (over 50 knots). White-knuckle driving.

  • btw ... is there a "Spring=Is=Here" report ...

    Am a displaced Big Sur person and would love to know when the Lupines etc light up the Spring Bulbs
