We have gotten through the overnight hours and the period with the potential for the most lightning there we have had a few Lightning Strikes across the bay area but not a lot. Most of it was in the Central Valley and the pacific. There is still rain. Look at the showers. Actually, there is more good news because it has been light rain. But when you start to get into the bands of yellow and orange, and into mendocino, that is an example of this lightning. That potential will stay with us until 10 00 this morning.

Well, i cant really remember initially what my act reaction was. I think it was a bit slower than all of a sudden saying im going to run for president. He was governor and had been governor for one term and reelected and i slowly think we both started talking about it. He talked about it and of course other people were talking to him about it.
