Very CA.
Yes.
You may be unaware of the misuse of language here in the Peoples' Republic, but so long as there's a drought, certain mandates are in place and enforced.
Except in Bel Aire


Well, CA has generally been a nice place to visit but after a week I'm ready to leave - although that one time in Anaheim wore out really fast.

Will someone tell those of us that apparently live in less strange parts of the country what a "wet drought" is?

From our political masters, who never pass up an excuse to exert control. A wet drought means although we have rain and a near-record Sierra snowpack, we still don't have enough water stored. Because. The water storage capability was built when CA had 20 million inhabitant. Then the enviro-Nazis took hold and stopped further such work. Now that CA has 40M inhabitants (some legal) water storage is inadequate, plus Arizona wants their full share of the Colorado River water.
Oh-yeah: 1 in 3 Californians want to secede from the US.

Some wiseacre is going to ask why we remain. Four children, eight grandchildren, 1st great-grandson. Proximity to good medical care (4 cancers and counting...). Inertia.

The real question though is whether you will be able to get back into PA....

In any case, going up to ~70 today here in VA - well past the record. And then we are supposed to get snow tomorrow night into Thursday. Rollercoaster weather!
