If you tried that bullshit here, it'd come back to you as ice cubes. Fuck CA GAF's weather dilemma.kenners said:I was gonna go do laundry, but now that it's raining, maybe I should just hang my clothes up outside...
Fidelis Hodie said:I'm in studio city and it aint no thang. I come from the land of tornado's and little snow, nashville! I also lived in Orlando for two years. Now there's some rain.
I don't feel like driving at all today though because everyone freaks the hell out in the rain. Ugh.
How about, no. When the rest of the country was freezing their balls off we had 75 degree weather. I'd take a few days of rain over having to deal with "real" weather.Xeke said:My god try living in a place with actual weather.
Len Dontree said:Ha, I grew up off White Bridge Rd near Nashville Tech. Out here animinatin' for the past several years, freelance for the time being.
I actually miss rain and thunderstorms and seasons, so it's nice when we get a good stretch of weather here in SoCal. Though I don't mind being so spoiled too much, when it was in the 20's and 30's back in Tennessee a couple of weeks ago I was going on hikes in the 75 degree sunshine.
But driving in this city is tiresome enough as it is, when there's rain it gets exponentially worse. That and all the denuded hills from the Station Fire are in danger of collapsing.

Oh please, SoCal's summer days aren't even that bad since it's usually not too humid.bjork said:Jealous snow-living people make me laugh.

I'm gonna have to say no. I'd prefer a hot day to ice-picking out the bottom of my driveway and scooping up shovels of water all to have the plows shove more of that shit into there.bjork said:Jealous snow-living people make me laugh.

SnakeswithLasers said:Wildfires are weather. They don't call it motherfucking FIRE SEASON for nothing. Our seasons are just more hardcore than everyone else. Waah, it's snowing. At least it isn't raining fire and ash, pussies.

85? They must have been exaggerating. I live in New England, it can sometimes get 90-100 here in the summer and that's totally doable. 100 degree day anywhere>blizzards of new england.bjork said:Tell that to the people I met at e3 who were miserable in May weather a few years back. I think it was like 85 out. :lol
I've seen 2 spinouts on the way to work this morning. Can't wait to drive to Staples Center later on today for the Laker game...Dark Octave said:Expect about 200,000 traffic accidents within the next 30 minutes. Southern Californians are idiots when it comes to driving in the weather. It's gonna look like a war zone on the freeways, watch.
I was on the on the freeway going about 55mph and some of the other cars were going 80mph.polyh3dron said:This shit is fucking horrible. Last night I was driving down Melrose and you couldn't see the lines on the road too well due to the rain and someone in the oncoming lane was over on my side and almost fuckIng hit me.
It's also coming down really hard right now.

the lines being hard to see is still common in places that get harsh winter weather. the roads get very worn by the weather and difference in temperature throughout the years. roads just plain suck everywhere.MattKeil said:Yeah, shit like this is the only serious worry in LA when it rains, at least until it overwhelms LA's pathetic excuse for a drainage system. The roads just aren't marked or maintained well enough to keep the lines visible, and sometimes idiots drift. I'm staying the hell inside today, anyway. No reason to deal with that if I don't have to.

Drahcir said:SoCal definitely makes it a big deal when it rains when in other parts of the country many would consider this mild drizzle. I'm in the L.A. county and it hasn't stopped raining since this morning, but I like it. We don't get rain very often so it's nice when it comes around.
