Wow you are really getting pounded. Sorry to hear about your daughters troubles. She will be telling tales about it for the rest of her life. Maybe she needs a "do you remember the storm of 2010?" quilt to cuddle up in.
I have lived in the Bay Area my whole life as have my parents. We had a tornado in San Jose when I was a child that was scary.
I love storms here, with lightning, thunder, the rain pouring like the sky was a sieve. Will pass on your weather, I think though. I like having a roof and house that don't fly.
