Things that will happen before a decent rain system arrives in SoCal:

Trump becomes a humanitarian.   Sarah Huckabee Sanders becomes a great press secretary.   Paul Ryan discovers compassion.   Mitch McConnell doesn't act like he's clueless.

the low here last week was 55

the low today was 16

at least it's dry

went to universal studios yesterday. it was 60* and i was cold all day long. took the tram ride around 4:00 and i was absolutely miserable.

Transferring some old audio tapes from my grandparents back in January of 1975,  my grandmother gave the weather report for Butte,  Montana as - 25 overnight and a high of - 5.

Coldest temp I ever experienced was as a child in Charlotte, -4 for a low.    Water line to the clothes washer froze and ruptured.

As an adult, funniest story would be while in Reno one year.   I came out to the car at night, and not realizing it was 10 degrees outside put on the windshield wiper fluid.  Splat!   Instant frozen windshield!

I actually love the cold. 

Here.

Ive been in some crazy places where it was freezing and we were "roughing it", and it kind of sucked. But as long as youre dressed for it, and arent gonna get stuck outdoors in a blizzard, I love it. 

Freezing cold outside with a fire inside is one of the most underrated things in life.

We left SoCal and moved to Colorado when I was 16. Lived in a corner house with sooooo much sidewalk. Being the HB born teenager who is expected to do all the snow shoveling is one of the most overrated things in life

"A change in weather pattern may loom in early January, potentially bringing increased chances for precipitation to the Southwest. The latest 8- to 14-day precipitation outlook from NOAA's Climate Prediction Center indicates above-average precipitation probabilities for much of the Southwest in the Jan. 4-10 period."

I'll believe it, when I see it.

79 degrees today and sunny. Perfect!

Who needs rain?

I'm playing golf tomorrow morning and probably wearing short.

i used to say the same until i actually lived somewhere with extended periods of ice and snow

rain turned into ice on the roads when the sun went down tonight, and i saw 3 collisions on my way to the store, which is less than a mile from me

car dealerships love it

Allegedly, rain is forecast for SoCal next Tuesday into Wednesday, about 3/4 of an inch.

Again, I will believe it when I see it.

[Adam]

Yeah hopefully that shit moves north

[Angel Oracle]

If anything, the rain would force a return to more moderate high vs low temps.   Seems that everyone is catching colds so far.   Is it any surprise, what with high/low temps seemingly being some 30-35 degrees apart since mid-December?   The rain usually brings that to about a 12-15 degree difference only.

Not SoCal, but still interesting to note that Boston may set new records for low temperatures this weekend.

"Bitter cold" doesn't quite describe what's in store for them.

 

[well_red]

my wife's family is from the albany area, the high for her hometown on saturday is going to be -6, insane!

Snow sticking in Tallahassee earlier today, first time in 30 years

I am sick and tired of this shitty weather.  I played golf today with @Tank, and he will back me up in saying it was horrible out there.  The greens were soft, and the fairways were short.  There was no sun, but it was a in the high 60's at least.  But the worst part was around the 16th, 17th hole.  The Zoo was open for business, and you could smell the cookies they were baking.  We need the sun to come back, and none of this marine layer crap that constantly kept my ball from reaching the green.

[fan_since79]

Wind chills early Sunday in Boston expected in the -25 degree range.

Patriots get a bye this weekend. I can't imagine them playing in any event. This is life-threatening weather.

Tried skiing in Vermont last week. Wind chill was minus 45-50.

Did two runs and then an hour warm up a few times before saying F it.

first the marine layer screwed with pujols, and today it screwed around with me and GotBeer. i'd have - heck, BOTH of us - probably would have shot in the mid-60s today if not for that stupid marine layer. it epecially gave me the yips whenever i tried to chip. CURSE YOU, RED BARON!!!!

So you only played the back nine?
