man, I made the mistake of getting ON the freeway right on warner right at 4:15. Holy balls. Right as I got on I got that feeling you get when you flush the toilet and you don't hear that flushing sound right away and you realize the water is rising higher than it should.

It took me about an hour to move half a mile to the nearest exit, and THEN all around warner/ magnolia area all the traffic lights were not working and people were not being notified that certain streets were blocked off. On top of that there was an accident right on magnolia , right next to the freeway exit and then a mile down the street from that there was a car that was blocking a lane because it ran out of gas.

Basically it took me about 3 hrs to get from Costa Mesa to Long Beach
