Narrative:

On descent and approach to psp, we experienced severe turbulence. I was pushed into the galley oven on the first jolt. On the second jolt, I was lifted off the floor about 8-12 inches and thrown across the aisle into the armrest at seat 29D and landed on the floor. I crawled into seat 30D and fastened my seatbelt. The cockpit was unable to communicate further with us, so when the turbulence eased, I quickly proceeded through the cabin to check the passenger. I told them to stow everything and prepare for landing. I then took my jump seat and remained there for the duration of the flight. I don't know if there was any way to prevent this -- short of not landing in psp due to high winds. The cockpit did an excellent job of landing the plane in the high winds.

Narrative: ON DSCNT AND APCH TO PSP, WE EXPERIENCED SEVERE TURB. I WAS PUSHED INTO THE GALLEY OVEN ON THE FIRST JOLT. ON THE SECOND JOLT, I WAS LIFTED OFF THE FLOOR ABOUT 8-12 INCHES AND THROWN ACROSS THE AISLE INTO THE ARMREST AT SEAT 29D AND LANDED ON THE FLOOR. I CRAWLED INTO SEAT 30D AND FASTENED MY SEATBELT. THE COCKPIT WAS UNABLE TO COMMUNICATE FURTHER WITH US, SO WHEN THE TURB EASED, I QUICKLY PROCEEDED THROUGH THE CABIN TO CHK THE PAX. I TOLD THEM TO STOW EVERYTHING AND PREPARE FOR LNDG. I THEN TOOK MY JUMP SEAT AND REMAINED THERE FOR THE DURATION OF THE FLT. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE WAS ANY WAY TO PREVENT THIS -- SHORT OF NOT LNDG IN PSP DUE TO HIGH WINDS. THE COCKPIT DID AN EXCELLENT JOB OF LNDG THE PLANE IN THE HIGH WINDS.
