What has happened to Sunny California?

[popcornbird]

Are all of you Californians out there enjoying the clouds, rain, darkness, and gloominess around here lately?

I *loved* the first rain of the season, but in all honesty, I cannot WAIT to see the sunshine and bright blue sky again. I'm not used to having such weather constantly for weeks. I mean...I like the cold. Its just the cloudy, rainy, *on-and-off* stormy weather that's bothering me.

The good thing is we're getting TONS of snow on the mountains this year, so hopefully, once the storms are over, and the weather calms down, we can drive up to see the snow. Last year we 'missed' the snow season. Hopefully we'll get to see snow this year. For now, I just want to have a nice, bright, sunny, clear sky day. Wonder when it will be sunny again. It seems like I haven't seen the blue sky in AGES!

I heard about this on the news today, and frankly I'm a little concerned about my grandparents. I know that the cold can't be good for my grandma!

Yesterday was so terrible. Very dark clouds, LOTS of rain.. lots of flooding, slippery streets, etc. Today it's actually somewhat sunny! Phew! Hopefully it stays like this.

Its called El Nino....



Its been pouring here for what seems like weeks. Our poor complex is going to be underwater soon...glad we live upstairs.

It's been raining, or at the very least overcast and drizzly, here for the last two weeks. Supposed to continue on for another week or so... but our temps have been crazy. On New Year's Day, it was 67. This week it is also supposed to get up to near 70. This is ridiculous. I want snow and ice cold temps so I can enjoy my hot chocolate! It's WINTER!

No flooding here. Well.....UP here there's no flooding :P. The roads are slippery and the sun is just peeking out. The trails are all muddy, so Giselle is gloomy.

It's SO rainy and stormy here. It hasn't stopped at all today. Our backyard is FLOODED, and I'm really not looking forward to going to school tomorrow in this.

IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA THIS IS TOO MUCH RAIN. CALIFORNIANS ARE USE TO RAIN IN LITTLE BITS, NOT BUCKETS. I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT TO STOP AND HAVE SOME SUN SHINE.I WANT TO TAKE CHICA TO THE PARK AND ENJOY SOME WEEKENDS. LATELY OUR WEEKENDS ARE CONSTANT RAINS.

I too enjoy the cooler weather, but I do have to admit that we have been getting a TON of rain. There is standing water on the roads near where I live and plots of land are turning into lakes. 1 nice sunny day here and there to balance the rain out would be nice, but on the flip side, we do need the rain and I was finally able to light a fire in my fireplace!
