Southern California Fires

While visiting family in Los Angeles, I noticed my daughters' neighborhoods were exceedingly dry and wondered when the rains would come. Now, that precipitation is needed more than ever.

Hundreds of thousands of Californian residents have already fled their homes since the increasing number of wildfires keep breaking out across the region. Multiple blazes popped up around Los Angeles, encroaching on the city. The smoke from these fires is making it increasingly difficult for folks to breathe.

White Christmas

Its beginning to feel a lot like Christmas as Winter's first flakes arrive and some areas could get as much as 5 inches of snow.

The first snowflakes of the Christmas season may fall this weekend in the tri-state region. There is a wintry low-pressure storm system moving up the southeastern coast expected to dump as much as 5 inches of snow.

The Winter Weather Advisory for the white stuff means periods of snow will cause primarily travel difficulties. Be prepared for snow-covered roads and limited visibilities, and use caution while driving.
