A brief period of sunshine gave way to more dark clouds, then rain, and just before noon, hail in Burbank! The hard pebbles pounded the roof of my house and created white patches of quickly melting ice on the ground in the hillside area. The weather is freaky out there today. Don’t get faked out by a little sunshine — keep that umbrella handy.

A lot of sunshine in Burbank on this President’s Day, although, the temperature is warming up slooowly. The hillside area was awash in sunshine this morning, but my walk was still quite chilly. The temperature didn’t seem to bother some. I saw folks diligently cleaning up storm debris and one ambitious neighbor was out painting her house! Despite some lingering clouds– no rain in the forecast — at least […]

A really big storm is expected to roll into the Southland by […]

Raindrops falling in Burbank tonight. We got a fine mist this morning — now it’s light rain with heavier showers reportedly headed our way over the next few days. There’s rain in the forecast through next Tuesday. Great for the lawn and the flower garden, not so good for commuters out on the slick roads and highways. Also, cool temperatures tomorrow — a […]

We went from spring-like to sizzling summer temperatures in just a couple of days. The high in Burbank today — 88 degrees. All over B-town folks were out in shorts, sandals, tee shirts — like it was July instead of January. Tomorrow, the high is expected to be up around 80 in the Media City — but the weather watchers say […]

A really warm and sunny MLK holiday weekend for the Southland. I love it! The temperatures began to sizzle yesterday, when the high reached 81 in Burbank! In the middle of January — this is how we do winter in SoCal. By 1 p.m. this afternoon, once again, the temperature cracked the 80 degree mark in the Media City. More […]
