Then again, perhaps of California’s wickedness, they won’t get any rain.

The news media will pivot, right on cue to mud slides on fire scarred hillsides and levee breaks along the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers. We’ve seen it before (1958) when I was a school kid riding the bus through flowing water and in subsequent El Nino years. What’s old is new again to those who have never experienced the drought/wet cycles of my former homeland.

Yes, we're all wicked here, unlike the rest of the country, where pure hearts, and fluffy unicorns reign in the glory of supreme and never ending goodness.
Just stop it.

Or it may rain for 40 days and 40 nights.

California; per capita; is no more wicked than any other state.

Then again, perhaps of Californias wickedness, they wont get any rain. IF that were true, D.C. would already have burned to the ground. Most of the planet would be on fire.
God didn't give us free will just to turn around and interfere with it.

That “forecast” was also issued each of the past two years.

California; per capita; is no more wicked than any other state. Each state has good areas and bad areas, good people and bad people. You are absolutely correct.
Knee jerk attacks on other states are not beneficial to keeping our nation together and whole.
Going by recent activities, MISSOURI is now an 'evil' state (due to Ferguson-Michael Brown). It's been pretty wet here.

The drought is caused by gobal warming. The floods will also be caused by global warming

I’m hoping. We need some massive mudslides this winter.

Really .. I live in CA and I never heard them talking about it until this year .. and then they showed us the maps which confirm that something is going on with our weather for this winter.
Interesting.
I don’t care if it rains every day .. Not that important to me.

But this year we have a large mass of warm water sitting out in the Pacific, and that’s the engine that will give us an el nino.

I was in California during the 1982-83 El Nino. I remember those heavy rains and all that storm damage on the coastline. There were some quirky songs on the radio around that time such as "Mickey" by Toni Basil and "Valley Girl" by Frank Zappa. Maybe we will get some quirky radio hits with this new El Nino.
Moon Unit is going to be 48 years old this year. Where has the time gone.

You forgot the outpouring of skittles over their land. As a CA resident, I too, get tired of the slams.

They won’t prepare since Brown doesn’t know what he’s doing. Then blame the Republicans when CA gets flushed in to the Pacific ocean.
