April Showers, May Flowers Why??

I am not one to complain about a free carwash, I would just prefer more notice than a couple of hours especially when driving the Targa without the top - I checked the weather before I left and it was supposed to be in the 70s with no chance of rain - weather people need to get a grip on the stuff - I hope none of you are meterologists but if you are - thanks for the notice. Luckily the Porsche is now safely dry in her garage.

Cry me a freakin' river. I lived the first 32 years of my life in Seattle before moving to L.A. It could be a lot worse!

Meteorologist has to be the only occupation where you can be consistently incorrect and still keep your job.

Bite me. It's been raining for 2 days so far, actually rained so friggin hard this morning it blocked the signal to my satellite dish.

I have a 12 mile commute and the other day encountered clouds, rain, sun, sleet and fog. Basically something different every 2 miles.

2 weeks ago it snowed for 3 days.

I'll trade any time you want.

Can you tell I'm jealous.

Scott

Clear and sunny here today in the Pacific Northwest (he said while supressing a snicker with considerable difficulty).

Sorry you guys get such crappy weather but you must understand that it was 90° on Monday. I am a self spoiled Californian kid and any sun is my reason for taking the Porsche out and I hate rain to ruin it.

It started raining while the detail guys at the office were washing my car! Came out of nowhere...

It's really quite hilarious that the weather people here can be SO wrong SO much of the time. Their temp predictions are often off by 20 degrees. I don't even pay attention any more; I just look at a satellite map myself if I really care what's coming.
