    There was a lot more traffic on 599 & 509 this morning than there usually is this time of the morning.  Maybe due to the incident/ delays on 405?

    Dry weather was expected all week, but it was pouring rain on my commute today. That was unexpected.

      Sorry, I guess this one just sneaked up on the forecasters …

      “A” think you nailed it.  Sure “Dry weather is expected all week!”  Yeah, you betcha.  Then why do we have 0.31 inches and it is still raining?

      haha, yesterday my boyfriend came home telling me it was dry and going to be sunny. I went out for my run and it was pouring rain. and yeah, my phone’s weather app said no rain all day.

    I’m glad I no longer have to rely on Metro.  I still have the app and am being inundated with cancelled routes 50, 55, 56, and 57!

Sorry, comment time is over.
