The forecast for Irvine today and tonight is "high winds." Last night, when I hit the sack, it was as calm as could be. Then, around 5 a.m., the house shook and I heard stuff flying around in the backyard. I looked out the window and saw the trees leaning hard to the south. But before I could get downstairs to secure anything at risk of blowing away, the winds stopped. And they've remained calm all day.
Tonight, I take no chances. The cabana is all the way to the edge of the retaining wall, the umbrellas are down, the spa is covered and the dog is going into the garage.
