California is stuck in storminess, with flood threats continuing into next week

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A storm that brought more soaking rain to Southern California on Thursday is on the way out, but there will be little break with a conga line of storms set to hit waterlogged California through early next week.

Evacuation warnings were issued ahead of Thursday’s storm in parts of Los Angeles County over fears of debris flows and flash flooding like what happened during a destructive Christmas-week storm.

Though Southern California had so far avoided major problems, with just flooding on some major roads, the warnings remained in place.

Flooding was most widespread on roads in the San Diego area on Thursday morning, including on parts of interstates 5 and 8. Rescue teams with the San Diego Fire Department also had to rescue people trapped in their cars in the floodwater.

2. This happens all the time in San Diego

yet certain morons continue to drive through flood prone areas and then need to be rescued. ALL THE TIME! Is it due to them thinking they are a special case and they have a "simply must get to so and so before it closes" attitude? Or, they just have to get to someplace and it is so damn important that they ignore the warnings? You know, like the after Christmas sale at Macy's or get home in time to watch a sporting event.

I think the city should make them pay the full amount that the rescue costs if it was a stupid choice on their part.
