Tuesday night's rowdy storm brought needed rain and dazzling lightning to San Diego County [Breaking]
A Pacific storm that was expected to largely bypass San Diego County brought modest but needed rain Tuesday night while also producing 10 lightning strikes and pea-sized hail that briefly carpeted spots from Mt. Soledad to Fallbrook.
The system also whipped up towering columns of dust in and around Borrego Springs and shook the hangars at Naval Air Station North Island and lashed Moonlight State Beach in Encinitas. Oh-so-tiny amounts of snow fell on Mount Laguna, says the National Weather Service. The storm affected much of Southern California and lit up Twitter when people began posting photos of the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, which was covered with so much hail it looked like a snow cup.
Only three days earlier, the temperature rose to 91 in San Diego, producing the hottest February day in the city’s history. It came during a five-day heat wave that ended on Sunday.Otay Mountain, 0.78 inches
