The weather has been a little crazy lately and things could get weird over the next 24 hours.

The National Weather Service has issued a Flash Flood Watch for the Greater Palm Springs area through Wednesday night.

There is potential for slow moving thunderstorms which could potentially produce up to an inch of rain per hour – which could then lead to flash flooding, debris, mudslides, and well, just a lot of unpleasant things.

Monday night saw a, and this is a scientific term, shit ton of lightning in the area and that could be the case again over the next 24 or so hours.  So be careful out there.
