If we didn't see the sun, the temp is not around 70ish to 80ish, and calm wind then we are bitching about it yeah, anything like rain, windy, dry weather, cold has no place in So Cal. What's a hard place to live!

You can check your 2nd item off your list and buy some Optimum NRWS. Hey, if I can manage to use it all winter in the Chicago winters that are regularly in the 10's and 20's and down to 0 at times, you can too

In all seriousness though, it's an awesome product that I started using last year, using Pat's technique. See this thread for some pics of mine in action...try number 1, and try number 2.

Is that from the brush fire that's going on right now? Instead of snow, we have to deal with fires and ash. That's how socal rolls.
