A highlight in 2023 came when I made special deliveries of lunch for ten to winners on the KJEE 92.9 morning show. It was part of a Three Pickles promotion. The final stop of the year was delivered to Rick and the crew at the Goodland Barber Shop in Goleta.

HWY 154 has reopened after a multi-car crash this afternoon and a full closure. CHP and Caltrans say all lanes are now clear.

Santa Barbara's waterfront businesses stay open even with a tidal overflow getting into several parking lots. On the Alley, Shoreline Cafe, Brophy Bros., Anchor Rose are among those keeping the lights on. But it was close, with the very strong ocean surge.

Santa Barbara is draining off after some of the most intense rain and flooding it has seen in a long time. The 9 AM hour was a gusher. Multiple intersections, underpass, crossings, and streets that do not normally flood were under water.

One lane is closed northbound Hwy 101 in Montecito where a piece of the asphalt is broken. Repairs are planned, but it's raining and a difficult spot. There are only two lanes in this section. keyt.com/news/santa-bar…

Some flood prone areas of Santa Barbara County brace for what could be more than 2-4 inches of rain along the coast and 4-8 inches of rain in the mountains. The heaviest rain period will be tonight and through Thursday morning. (Photos: KEYT)
