Belmont Gets Blasted With Rain! (With Video)

OK it will be all over the news but here’s the local Belmont scoop. Just as a back-up to our weather station which uploads to the internet, I have this visual aid in our backyard because I guess I am a geek for starters (I also have triple redundancy for my hard drives now), but it did help when the circuit board stopped measuring rain earlier this year.

 The first picture is one I took when I left for work and the second is when I came home at lunchtime.

Our weather station reported the following (see below). Notice the rain rate at 2” per hour at 11:52 and 36 MPH winds at 8:06 AM. It was raining cats and dogs.

Now we are up to 18.82 inches for the year (July-June), 3.82 for the month and 3.15 just since this storm event!

 Remember you can always view the weather station on our web site live 24/7 from our Hallmark area home.

The weather at work was amazing too as you see this poor pedestrian trying to maneuver around a small pond on Ralston Avenue whilst the cars pay scant attention to him.

Best Home Deals March 22, 2011

We’re excited to announce three “Best of Tour” homes from our Broker’s tour on Tuesday.

These homes represent homes we think offer a good value and should get snapped up quickly.

 BELMONT

There were two in Belmont we thought we’re an excellent value. The first one was at 3484 Lodge but since it already has three offers since Sunday’s open house we may as well skip that one. It was listed at $799,000 which is an ex excellent value for the West side.

  Lodge
 

The second Belmont home at 2223 Thurm listed by Better Homes and Gardens M. Smith. It’s located right on the border of San Mateo on a pastoral 13,000 square foot lot. The four bedroom three and one-half bath home is nicely appointed and at 2,714 square feet it’s a very good value too.

SAN CARLOS

 

We liked 132 Arundel. Looks like a nice move-in condition home with three bedrooms, two baths with 1, 390 square feet of living space on a nice sized 8,500 square foot lot. Listed by RE/MAX D. Roberts

  Arundel

1362 Geneva in the White Oaks is a three bedroom three bath home of 1,860 square feet on a tad bit small 4,040 square foot lot but this home looks great and should fly off the shelf. Listed by Coldwell Banker R. Jabeen

  Geneva

As always, if you want us to look specifically for the best of tour home for you drop us an email or connect with us and let us know what you’re looking for. We’ll be your eyes and ears on the peninsula.
