I wear long sleeves and pants in every weather. I just hate wearing short sleeves and shorts - I can't do it, even on 100+ days.

I'm looking forward to being able to wear my collection of hoodies and jackets again.

I pretty much always wear short sleeves and long pants, in both the coldest and hottest weather.

One of the professors at my alma mater would always wear shorts. Even in -40 degree (-40, for you Celsius folks) weather. He doesn't wear long pants to the extent that he had to borrow a pair of pants to wear to my sister's wedding.

Somehow though, when you put it into Celsius it seems less impressive.

If your hands, feet, and head are properly covered, and your core's insulated, your arms and legs don't really vent enough heat to worry about unless it's frostbite cold.

Yeah pretty much. When it's -20 out or whatever I'm not out there in JUST a t-shirt anyway. I have a coat on. Maybe a sweater too, if it's really cold.

They're the same people who say that California's weathers aren't too warm.

You know, while their state is literally the fire level of the US.

At this point isn't California's fire level pretty much just: "Yes"?

No no, California has two seasons: wildfire and mudslide.

I would comment, but the nearest hill here spontaneously burst into flames last Friday.

I'm pretty sure if you mix the two you get a cocktail.

So how long before, like all earthly paradises, California goes the way of Mesopotamia?

So you're saying I should stop looking in Caliofornia for places to move, as I would only make the fire worse? Or is the fire there already so bad, I cna't make it worse?

The mere act of googling "California" starts a fire in the Sierra Nevada.

Oh look a severe thunderstorm and flash flood warning.

I guess it's wildfire AND mudslide season.

It seems late in the year for that, since a forest on fire that's inexorably sliding directly at your peaceful suburb is clearly summer blockbuster action movie material.

Somehow we're getting rain and hail at the same time.
