Your local government should provide sand, check their social media. Remove things from your yard. Go buy essentials. If you lose power keep your fridge closed as much as possible. Don't try to drive through flooded areas. Stay safe :3

  • The "year's worth of rain" is mostly clickbait

Yeah I see that, its terror media these days. Scare you away from anything that might be sensible.

  • the cold ocean here takes the steam out of hurricanes

That I agree 1000%, I did not like getting in the ocean when I was on the left coast. New England loved it, then didn't like it in Florida depending on the winds and the jelly fish.

  • Right now in San Diego the water temp is 65 F

That tracks.

But I will say every surfer is going to be out for this hoping for swells/breaks.

That said stay safe just in case!
