I must be a secret masochist because I keep checking the weather at Dana Point, California where Sue and I spent Christmas. When our daily high temperatures were barely nudging the mid-20s the weather at Doheny Beach was often much better... rarely below 65 and often in the 70s. This, of course, plunged me even deeper into my winter-induced depression. This week I've been feeling lots better. Our own temps have been into the 50s and I checked my iPhone before getting out of bed and discovered that Dana Point has no fewer than five warnings: Coastal flooding; Inland flooding; Flash flooding; High surf; and, High Wind. The surf is expected to get to 20-feet what with the high winds and the high tide. Even better, the high temp is in the mid 50s just like it is here. Whoopee! I felt so much better I decided to check the stock market. Uh oh.
