I was near there.
It's that hot in my car everyday when I leave work.

Maybe so, and probably hotter still inside a car in that location.  We were near there in February, even stopped in Fujairah, which had little of any note to see.  Dubai and Abu Dhabi are impressive in their own rights.  We later stopped in Oman but there was some mixup and they weren't letting folks off the dock for a long time, so we reboarded.  That was a mess.

No shit.

They're all gone anyway, plus (most of) California thinks they never existed in the first place.

I'm interested given that my house was in the eye of the worst hurricane to ever hit Florida.

California's about to get a little windy and very wet.

San Diego has a lot of hills that appear to be mostly sand.  Erosion in this sort of rain could be a huge issue.  There isn't a lot of foliage on those hillsides.

They get some rain, but not in torrents.

Yeah, we're gonna have some serious flooding. Weather report shows ~1.5" of rain over a 5 hour period this afternoon. That's... A lot for here.

I'm up a bit in elevation so I'm not worried about any flooding, thankfully. And we have nowhere to go today, so just gonna hang out. Doesn't look like the wind will be enough here to be worth worrying about. 

Biggest concern I have is power. I won't be shocked at all to have the power go out, but I don't want it to be a long enough outage that it impacts the fridge/freezer(s).

If you have an ice maker, take out some ice now and put it in a bowl in the fridge part, and hope you get more ice.
