What is this, Singapore or the MidWest??

No, the title is not a dig at either place.

The contributors of this blog are in the South Bay, 20 minutes South West of downtown Los Angeles in California. Our rain is supposed to work like this. It gets cloudy, then rains, then cloudy and then clears. It may take a few days for all of this to happen but that is the format.

Last night (Saturday) we had heavy rain. Today, Sunday, it was sunny and DRY at 8:45am, by 1pm it was raining so hard the water was to the top of the curbs. Now by 3:30pm its sunny again and the ground is drying out. Guess who followed the normal format and didn't bother taking a jacket when he left at 8:45am because the sky was clear and warm. At least I had my umbrella.

Where the weather goes from sun to rain to sun is NOT typical of SoCal but of Singapore or the Mid West. We need the water so I'm glad for the rain, but am not used to the weather patterns here.
