HRRR weather model predicting it's going to potentially being a drenching Rose Bowl Parade. Dependent on wind I suppose. Looks like Verdugo Peak may create a rain shadow, if you believe the HRRR. Very tough to tell if it's thunderstorm driven, could be no rain, lots of rain, rain and lightning.

Will be interesting to see how many calls Pasadena Fire gets for hypothermia overnight from folks claiming their spot on the sidewalks... #RoseBowl #CAwx #Pasadena

Forecast for nearly half an inch an hour at 8am in Pasadena

Significant rain just west of Pasadena on a map

Went outside onto the #RoseParade Route (Colorado blvd) on New Years for the first time in forever. Forgot that people will drive to #Pasadena camp out in the rain (and it is raining hard) for their parade spots. And the RVs and campers are already out.

Also, yay #goodyearblimp time!

A parking lot featuring various recreational vehicles (RVs) and trucks, with some covered items and tents. The sky is overcast and rainy, and nearby buildings and mountains are visible in the background.

A street view featuring a busy Colorado intersection with traffic lights, cars, and wet pavement. In the background, there are RVs and tents under a cloudy sky, suggesting an event or gathering (The Rose Parade). Street signs and palm trees are also visible.

The Goodyear blimp is flying in a gray sky, partially obscured by the branches of a nearby tree and the corner of a building.

Went out for a bike ride in my neighborhood (NW #Pasadena) and spotted several new #Flock cameras. Several appeared to be positioned such that they include sidewalks and views toward duplexes and apartments.

A Flock camera mounted to a city streetlight pole. The camera is a black oblong rectangle with a small sun shade hood. Next to it on the pole is a light grey box with wires between it and the Flock camera.

In case you, family, or friends are in #Pasadena for Rose Parade/game, you may want to keep up with evacuation orders

How the Rose Parade is responding to rain in forecast

More wet weather is on tap for Southern California this week, which may result in the first rainy…

Pasadena triggered some evacautions near the #EatonFire burn scar zone.
(later than LA County and Sierra Madre, which triggered them earlier). For possible burn scar flooding. Lots of sandbag locations from various municipalities there.

Red Crowned Amazon parrots. Not very happy to see me on the porch. Pasadena, California, Dec 23, 2025
#birds #parrots #pasadena

Two green parrots on a branch. Both parrots are bending forward, facing left, as if they are about to take flight. The parrot on the left is spreading its wings and both parrots are spreading their tails. The parrots are mostly green with lighter green tails. The foreground of the phot is partially obstructed by the edge of an out of focus tile roof.

Gorgeous Southern California civic buildings

Provided below are images of gorgeous civic buildings in Southern California. It is hard to imagine a region in the country with more stately and graceful civic buildings. While all are handsome, this blog author’s personal favorite is the airport terminal building in Long Beach (second image below). It reminds me of the golden age of flying and hat’s off to the city for preserving the original terminal.

Other top five (5) choices are the city halls in Burbank and Beverly Hills, the Central Library in L.A., and the Los Angeles Union Station. Burbank’s City Hall is an Art Deco lover’s dream come true, both inside and out.

Great architecture makes great cities. Peace and enjoy the images!

Wild Parrots of Los Angeles: Red-crowned Amazon, Red-lored Amazon, and Yellow-headed Amazons over the weekend. LA has a large parrot population due to the pet trade, and there are more parrots here than in their native lands due to habitat loss.

Are you in the #altadena or #Pasadena area and want to know more about online safety from scammers, surveillance, and soforth? Or know someone who does?

Tomorrow I'm giving a talk at the main Altadena library 6-7pm on related topics. You'll learn about real world dangers online and some practical steps to counter those threats. I'm also doing the same talk at 4pm Dec 9th at Loma Alta branch.
