I'm in the bay area, and did experience the loma prieta as a 3rd grader playing in my sandbox...seeing the ground literally rolling was quite something! We had record warm weather in the bay area yesterday (90's) and a huge temp drop today (upper 50's right now) with rain. Temp fluctuations like that in the bay area are not common...unlike the Midwest and other parts which can often see one day in the 60s and the next in the 30s.
