Sorry to hear Brad
I’ve heard about the winds but not being familiar with the climate there, what causes them and it the same time every year?
Edit: I was curious enough to google it. Incase anyone else is unfamiliar and wondered https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Ana_winds
Very interesting wiki read. I was not aware of fungal infections etc. associated with the Santa Ana Winds at least per who ever wrote the wiki thread. "The winds carry Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides posadasii spores into nonendemic areas,[24][25] a pathogenic fungus that causes Coccidioidomycosis ("Valley Fever"). Symptomatic infection (40 percent of cases) usually presents as an influenza-like illness with fever, cough, headaches, rash, and myalgia (muscle pain).[26] Serious complications include severe pneumonia, lung nodules, and disseminated disease, where the fungus spreads throughout the body. The disseminated form of Coccidioidomycosis can devastate the body, causing skin ulcers, abscesses, bone lesions, severe joint pain, heart inflammation, urinary tract problems, meningitis, and often death.[27]"
Good to hear your family & home are ok. With all the news of fires reaching homes etc. I was curious on insurace rates and at least per google search average Florida home was $3575 vs. $793 average California home per
https://www.insurance.com/home-and-renters-insurance/home-insurance-basics/average-homeowners-insurance-rates-by-state .... I guess the fires and quakes are no where near the destruction vs. hurricanes. I would not have guessed these numbers as I normally think more money for California living but not the case on home owners insurance and perhaps not the case on other items...
