Heavy Downpour Causes Mudslide In Glendora

March 1, 2014 12:20 PM



GLENDORA (CBSLA.com) — Heavy downpour caused a small mudslide in rain-soaked Glendora on Saturday morning.
Shortly after 6:30 a.m., a fast rush of debris and mud flowed down Sierra Madre Avenue and Hicrest Road, reported KCAL9′s Louisa Hodge.

But the storm’s havoc didn’t end there.

In Azusa, a tornado warning was issued just before 3:30 a.m. The storm cell, however, did not materialize into a tornado but turned into a severe thunderstorm, squeezing out about an inch of hail near the city of Walnut, KCAL9 Meteorologist Amber Lee reported.

Aerial footage in Monrovia captured images of mud filling a pool and hot tub. K-rails and other homemade barricades helped keep the mud at bay, however.

Meanwhile, mandatory evacuation orders for Glendora, Azusa, and Monrovia remain in effect.

Finally here in San Diego we had a couple rural communities that did not have power for 36 hours. Some of the people affected are elderly and disabled, trust me, it was not funny to them. We also had mud entering homes in homes here. So while you are all nice and bundled up and all you got was some wet hair. to some people it was a serious thing.

For the most part it did what it usually does, but there is more. There were more than a few accidents in the back country. Totals just for my county by the CHP topped 800 accidents in 48 hours, and some of them were in areas where usually Medical helicopters are called in. Those choppers refused the call due to weather conditions, including heavy rain and high winds as well as wind sheers near the surface.

The uncaring and chuckling attitude by some is not only personally disgusting, but also the kind of attitude that people usually ascribe to freepers. I know better. Some people are just dickish, regardless of who they claim they vote for. If you do not like me, that is ok. But at least have the common decency to put me on ignore and stop making light of things that could potentially (and for some it was very real thank you very much) be very serious and life changing.

Suffice it to say, you are on ignore, you shall remain on ignore, and if something happened to you, I would actually care. I have the feeling you would not mind if I died. In fact I believe you would celebrate and do a few high fives. That is how little of your humanity I believe you have. And you all know who you are.
