2024-2025 California and Southwest Weather Thread

[Anti Marine Layer]

It's 2024 and time that the 2022-2023 California and Southwest weather thread has expired 

How will California weather or lack thereof continue to bore us over the next 2 years? Anymore tropical storm direct hits or record breaking May Gray and June Gloom spells to come? Will El Nino deliver some nice juicy storms or will it wimp out on us?

La Nina will return with avenge this summer

2 broken rain gauges. Great way to start 2024.

[Anti Marine Layer]

RAINING again. Hope the two broken rain gauges are enjoying it and taking it all in.
