1. My dear KitchenWitch...
Yeah, they were predicted for the weekend...

Fire crews are already in place, according to the LATimes...

They're not blowing here......yet...

Try not to worry, sweetie...

6. Are they known for making everyone a little crazy?
That's what I've heard of the Passat winds in Vienna. Crime rate goes up, & much infidelity among spouses.

8. They're known for causing people to go crazy after their houses burn down
It's not a pretty scene and there is much anxiety about this

9. I am not sure.
The last batch of them brought the fire to within a mile of my house though.

Right now the sustained winds are at about 30 mph with gusts around 50.

16. Tell Santa Ana that Christmas isn't until December 25th, and to go fuck
himself ( or herself...whatever ) until that date passes...

Hope your doors stop rattling...these people are REALLY pushing the holidays on us, aren't they?
