Normally . . . (and this sure ain't no normal winter), I enjoy the major storms rushing in off the Pacific and bringing big and powerful waves with beautiful blue skies and pleasant temps in between. BUT, this "January" is just weird. Record breaking high temperatures and nary a drop of water from the sky.
It seems like its never going to end, at least in your area the summer temps aren't bad but here it's 100 + the whole summer.
