"It never rains in Southern California"... my ass!

[KeepItReal]

It's a frackin thunderstorm and torrential rain goin on out here!

Guess we're gonna go from forest fires to mudslides...

[Fire Walk With Me]

1. Oh yeah, it rains here (just thundered lightly) but it's usually short and torrential.

This, at least here, is a nice medium shower. Very happy-making.

[KeepItReal]

3. For a little while it was stormin like South Louisiana!

Remind me of home.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. My dear KeepItReal!

We call it "liquid sunshine!"

It is most agreeable...

I love the sound of it on my roof...

It makes me feel all cozy and safe and warm...

[KeepItReal]

4. Me likey "Liquid Sunshine"!

8. i love it, i hope it rains A LOT this season

[KeepItReal]

11. SoCal goes from one extreme (forest fires) to another (landslides).

I guess Laurel Canyon is gonna be screwed tonight!

[huskerlaw]

14. It is raining to beat HELL in the SF Valley right now

Has been for the past 20+ minutes.

I'm talking rain in sheets. You'd be hard pressed to see your hand in front of your face. And there's thunder and lightning!

We're easily getting more rain right now than we did in the past 12 months total.

I LOVE IT!!!! :woohoo:

[KeepItReal]

16. Enjoy!!!

:toast:

15. look momma! its the other end of I-40

17. Before yesterday

Only one inch has fallen in the region since July 2006, with the winter being the driest in recorded L.A. history.

I'd say that "it never rains" is fairly accurate.

As welcome as this one is, it has also been sporadic. We need it to be sustained.

[Shakespeare]

18. Uh, the rest of the lyrics: "It pours, man, it pours"

I'm loving the hell out of this. All the windows are open, and I'm having a wonderful, mellow day listening to the rain--for the first time in MONTHS. We need this so much, and it makes for a quiet, peaceful way to spend an afternoon.

[EstimatedProphet]

20. Listen to the whole song

The next line is "It pours"

[petronius]

21. One of the most dangerous situations on Earth is when

all the Southern Californians try to drive in the first rain of the season...

[EFerrari]

23. We had thunder and lightening up here, too.

The gods must be angry. Or, bored. :)

24. Asa Jamaican once told me,

"It's not rain, Ma'am, it's liquid blessing." :hippie:
