Doesn't matter. Rain above gage gets blown away but rain coming in will make up for it. It's like standing in the rain and getting wet even though the rain is going sidewise, you'll still get wet.

I spent a good deal of time yesterday dodging blowing leaves. (Or as some will insist 'leafs')

Excellent point! I was thinking about getting an ev golf cart. For the reason you stated, and a few others, I am going to keep my gas cart. Thanks for your insight!

Outside I can hear faint hum from turnpike so wind gusts can’t be that bad.

I know we have few hours left but so far so good
No affect in Alhambra. We've had heavier storms and higher winds WITHOUT a hurricane. 3/4" on my Tain gauge.

Have a nephew that’s a Dr. & he had 2 EV’s & said no more, he went back to a gasoline car, wish I had why he went back to a gas car but I’m guessing it had to do with keeping them charged. Personally I wouldn’t have an EV, I heard to many nightmares about EV’s before I retired from Ford after 38 yrs. Guess some people have to buy one to find out.

Doesn’t make me any difference I don’t have an EV, so poke all the bears you want. I’m just saying people that buy expensive EV’s & the bear is lying there dead, they better skin it fast, it’s their money!
