I am from New Jersey and I am glad I do not live in Cali. No offense, but it actually rains here.

Thats freaking bad!

But we got that fat pig Christie, so you guys still win until we can get rid of Mr. Twinkie.

I would give a lot for a little rain, thinking of going up to the mountains for a while.

My neighbor's daughter and grand kids were just in for a week long visit from LA. The kids were looking forward to seeing it rain but, irony is cruel and it didn't rain a drop the whole time.

Move to western coastal Washington state for one winter, you will have your fill of rain.

I was living there for a year, the summer was awesome, but Fall came, it got cloudy, rained, and it stayed that way for 3 months.

Yep,the weather has its strong views, unfortunately.

It should be noted the drought is far worse in Southern California (Los Angeles, San Diego, the Inland Empire, etc.) than in Northern California. There is still quite a lot of rainfall in NorCal. When they show the weather maps on the news here in Los Angeles, it always seem the rain stops about just north of halfway of the state. The really big problems are the snow packs on the Sierras in the eastern part of the state; they have been very low and the runoff is far less than what is needed to replenish the reservoirs. Added to this is the fact SoCal is basically a desert without adequate water sources of its own; an exceedingly high percentage of the water needed to service SoCal has to be imported either from NorCal or states to the east of California. Cities such as Los Angeles should have never been allowed to be built up to the sizes they are; they are not capable of being anywhere near self-sustaining and, yet, the governments of those cities and counties continue to press for greater growth...
