CRAZY STRANGE weather near San Pedro, Ca Tonight!

Same thing happened in Fresno last week. 95 degrees, clear skies all day. At sunset, some clouds came out of nowhere, must have rained on the outskirts of Fresno, but no rain here, but there was this giant red rainbow, no other colors, just red. My daughter took a pic, put it on her facebook, and when I saw it I thought WTF, as I was inside that night. Strange weather this summer. We have barely been over 100 all summer, and usually its like 50 straight days of 100, 105,110. Not this year. Can't wait to see what winter brings.

With what has been going on in the rest of the pacific rim the last few years, and weeks, we are way overdue.

We are 45 mins. NE of LA in the Angeles Mt area.
We were out feeding the animals a little before 8:00 pm
and I saw a flash in the sky south of us.

It must have been lightening, but the weird thing is that the lightening flashes kept up for over an hour and we never once heard any thunder. Not once.

Yes, lightening. Same here but we are 45 mins or more NE of LA.

Did you hear any thunder?
We didn't...it was the weirdest feeling. An hour or more of lightening and "NO" thunder.

I checked NOAA and it said possible thunderstorms 20% but that was "not" the NOAA forcast yesterday.

I am from Washington state. Only been in California 4 years.
This was not a normal lightening storm or weather or cloud set.

There was no thunder. That is not normal either.

Temecula here.. Late afternoon the sky turned a greyish black with 90+ temp. About an hour later walked outside and it was completely clear until sunset. Beautiful colors were seen here too reflecting off the new clouds that rolled in.

I saw the double rainbow as well, I live in the South Bay. My friend called to tell me about it and when I walked out the sky was really cloudly and grey almost smokey looking with the double rainbow and when I turned to look the other direction it was completely light up with white clouds and orange and pink hues. There was a 20 percent chance of rain and I noticed the skies getting darker earlier than they typically do. My girlfriend said it's beautiful but it's erie at the same time. The wind picked up about 30 minutes after all this. Very strange. I took some pictures but they didn't turn out too well.

My pics didn't do so good either. On the crappy little cell phone, could not get the full effect!

Would love to see a pic of the RED bow tho'!

Thanks, everyone, for chiming in. Was up at 4AM and saw one big FLASH of light in the north but that was it. Hubby up earlier to close windows against high winds.

What really continues to get me is that anywhere else in the world, all of this would mean one heck of a good, clearing storm but...never in LA!!

What don't you understand about the ongoing aerosols sprayed above you that creates these weird colors and formations? No wonder they can spray so freely overhead without people questioning it.

I posted these last night in a different thread. Didn't want to start a new thread at the time but felt like it was worth documenting because, as you all have verified, it was quite an unusual night over the Los Angeles area.

7:26pm PT
The skies over West L.A. were feeling ominous today with black clouds moving in from the coast. I guess it rained somewhere because we just had a beautiful double rainbow, then the skies turned blazing pink as the sun started setting.

7:42pm PT
thunder and lightening now.

7:46pm PT
notable because it wasn't in today's forecast.

So here was the LA sky looking (roughly) SW at 6:12pm, awhile after the clouds came in and it was feeling kind of weird outside:

An hour later, at 7:19pm:

These were taken near West Hollywood. The sunset Doomamatrix saw over at the coast must have been brilliant!

We just haven't had much quake activity around L.A. since that swarm above San Fernando:

YES! this is what I am talking about! Oh, I wish I had had the regular camera with me last night!

Also, when hubby was up and out on balcony, flocks of crows were up well in advance of the morning. (3AM) This is odd.

Crows at 3am??? In a city, very odd indeed!

That's what I thought too. The cat had upchucked all over the place and then INSISTED on going out of doors on the balcony. Of course when she saw the birds, she didn't want to come back in!

Thanks for the K, Doom!

Here's a pic of the double rainbow. I didn't get to capture both arcs, I could just see them through the trees:

Sunlight is all kinds of crazy lately.

Hahah - Sorry but this is a normal evening here on the Colorado front range. You guys need more variety of weather there in "SoCal"

been a really odd day where I am in LA County. Hot, cold, windy, humid. A variety of conditions. Last night I woke up at 3am and there was a sudden down pour. An hour later thunder unlike any thunder i've ever experienced and then about an hour later winds at least 30-40 MPH. My house shook a bit with each big gust and creaked a lot, LOL.

Very odd weather, seems like EQ weather to me. Something just isn't right. Also this morning when we left the house (about 9:30am) the sun was really, really hot. Just walking to the car made my skin burn which isn't normal. It felt like it was on fire and my car is just a few feet from the porch on my house so exposure was really short/limited. I noticed around 1pm the same burning sensation from the sun when it got really humid. Now it's hot but a couple hours ago it was really cool, at least a 10 degree fluctuation. The patio says 90 degree's right now with the fans going. Very odd considering it was bordering cold just a couple of hours ago.

Can't argue with that, Poster 8398!

A lot of people say there's no such thing as EQ weather, but I believe there is, like you Trixie! Like you said, something just doesn't feel right : (

But the skies were beautiful!

These are my two favorite pictures from last night. Pointing towards the west:

The skies were gorgeous but *something* doesn't feel right. My mom and I had this conversation yesterday too :) Something is amiss. Not sure if it's weather modification or what but something isn't right. I've lived in CA all but 3 years of my life (spent 3 years in CT as a military wife) and have spent many summers in the midwest. This weather we are experiencing, is not typical CA weather and the only times I can remember having *off* weather happened to be times when we experienced dramatic weather changes that ended with an EQ.

Your pics were beautiful :) I spent sometime outside yesterday evening admiring the beautiful rainbow the sunset created in the sky/clouds. Such vibrant colors. I think what strikes me as oddest is the dramatic fluctuations in weather, one minute it's cold, the next it's hot then it's humid and raining. Def not typical So Cal weather.

Thanks, folks!

And to the poster from the Front Range of CO; yes, I agree 100 per that we need more variety in our weather here!

Now, when I lived in CO, and it was the front range btw, I recall sunsets that just took the breath away!

Usually, the evening sky here is cloudless. One sunset tends to look like other one, day in, day out.


You need CLOUDS to have a good sunrise/sunset. It's just like life; we all have our clouds and that is what can make us interesting. Letting the sun/SON shine on our clouds can make us beautiful!

Will be in church tonight so no sunset for me! You guys let me know if anything out of ordinary happens again, ok?
Thanks!

Great photo of that!

Thanks!

It's been a beautiful night in L.A. but now I'm trying to shut out the sound of a high-pitched hum from came out of nowhere and has been going for over 7 minutes now.

Just making a note of it in case we find out later it was the dreaded HAARP machines !
