It’s Raining, It’s Pouring and San Diego is Crashing!

If you’re new to town, or a tourist in San Diego, you should probably stay off the roads today. 
No, I’m serious. You’re probably laughing now, right? You’ve driven in blizzards, huge storms, or far more dangerous conditions elsewhere, and after all, it’s just a little rain! That’s entirely true, but it’s a sad fact:
