I live in Southern Cali. Since I moved here, I've seen zero snow, it barely rains in the summer (I live in the valley; it gets very hot in the summer), and never stops raining from December to about April (okay, a small exaggeration, but yea). I'm originally from NY, where they had snow around Halloween time. I miss the snow, but after seeing it for 25 years, it's a nice change here not to have to worry about slipping on iced-over snow that people were too ***ing lazy to shovel up! GRAWL!
