This morning around 6:45, a pedestrian was killed by a northbound Caltrain near the Mountain View train station. Train service was help up for about an hour afterwards and started up again around 8 and there were 20-30 minute delays afterwards. It's the twelfth death this year involving the trains. There were ten last year and according to the police, about 80% of them were suicides.

Ah, it’s raining today and for those of us working, nothing quite sums up the first day back after the holidays like it being grey and miserable outside. It looks like it’s going to be grey and miserable for awhile as five-day forecasts call for rain, rain, and more rain. When it rains, there’s nothing quite like the high-comedy that comes with watching the local news broadcasts as they spend what always feels like half the broadcast letting everyone know that “OH MY GOD! IT’S RAINING!” and then whip around to like every reporter they have on staff, all strategically placed throughout the Bay Area, just so that they can show to everyone that, yep, it’s raining there too.
