Stormy weather in the Southland

Stormy skies over the weekend for Burbank and the rest of the Southland, according to the weather watchers. The rain rolled in late last night. This morning, the major freeways were littered with wrecks, toppled vehicles, and pockets of backed-up traffic.  The forecast is for steady rain, heavy at times, throughout the day and much of the evening. There’s a flash […]

Sunny, clear, and very windy

  Luckily, I didn’t open up an umbrella this morning while standing in the driveway or I might have done the Mary Poppins thing.  The weather watchers say we’re getting gusts between 40-60 mph today with winds 20-to-30 mph. The winds felt more powerful than that in my neighborhood. In Burbank around 7 a.m., the winds were howling and roaring through the hillside […]

Wind, clouds, sunshine, and maybe rain this weekend

So much for this morning’s raking of the leaves. When I looked outside around noon, my Burbank yard was covered with leaves from the Mulberry, Magnolia, and other trees — thanks to some strong winds whipping through the hillside area. Sure the sun is still out, but that may not be the case for long. There’s a chance of rain through […]

A scorcher in November

A blazing hot day on tap for the Media city today. At 10 a.m., it’s already 80 degrees in Burbank. The weather forecast is for a high in the mid-to-upper 90s!  Yes, we’re deep off into fall, but we’re getting another reminder of what a gorgeous summer day feels like in the Southland. I was out before nine this morning and saw a […]

A wet start to the Halloween weekend

We got some rain early this morning in Burbank and could get more before the day is done. So keep that umbrella nearby. The weather forecast is for cool temperatures in the 60s and overcast skies with some occasional sunshine.   The rain should be gone by tomorrow. The weather watchers are predicting sunny and dry conditions on Halloween in the Media City and the rest of […]

Sunny, windy, and warm in Burbank today

  Dress in layers, caused it could get into the mid-80s today.  At 9 a.m. the temperature in the Media City lingered on the chilly side — upper 50s. Nevertheless, the weather forecast is for at least 80 and perhaps a bit warmer with plenty of sunshine. Also, those gusty winds are expected to kick up again today. There is a wind […]

Weather mix: sun, clouds, wind, and maybe more rain

  We’re getting sunshine and some gusty winds, along with those cloudy skies  here in Burbank today. It was warm enough, near 70,  to take a stroll through the downtown district around noon; however, I had to hold onto my hat at times to keep the wind from blowing it off. Weather watchers are predicting strong winds in various parts of the Southland. […]

Halloween is coming… and a Burbank haunted house opens

More Halloween like weather for Burbank.  Today’s cool temps and mostly cloudy skies will turn even gloomier tonight with more clouds, a chance of showers, and a full eerie glowing moon. Perfect time for the creatures of the night to come out. Last night in Burbank, there were plenty of the spooky-kind at the opening of the “Nightmare at the Museum” attraction. […]

Stormy weather in the Southland

More showers with a chance of thunderstorms in Burbank and most of the Southland, today.  Last night, I was out on the freeways and noticed the big trucks had slowed down and only a few motorists were darting in and out of traffic as if the roads were dry. It has taken a few days of rainy weather for some drivers to get […]
