It was quite the blustery day in Sacramento as winds reached over 50 mph and more than 3 inches of rain fell, according to Fox 40 News meteorologist Kristina Werner.
Trees and branches fell in streets, on houses, on cars and power lines went out intermittently through the central city.
Streets turned into ponds, traffic slowed making commutes much longer than usual and I-5 was a flooded mess near the boat section despite the recent work by Caltrans.
It seemed there wasn't one corner of the city that the storm didn't touch.
Businesses such as Temple and Lucky Lefty's (shown below) felt the effects of the storm.
It's hard to believe many of us were just wearing flip flops, skirts, shorts and sleeveless shirts, as ponchos, hooded jackets, scarves and boots accompanied upturned umbrellas and scurrying people.
The rain did lighten up around 6 p.m. and there was even a rainbow to brighten the day.
Fall is definitely here.
