I am a native Californian who absolutley loves New York City. I visited in 2004 for a medical conference and try to get back when I can. I make it a point to attend this conference every year so I can play in my favorite city.

Heatwaves and Riots


Well, we're having some of that famous California weather - hot and dry with a slight Santa Anna wind. Good for stirring up the ol' allergies! Well if the weather would make up its mind. Not too much happening with the immigration proposal protests. THey have actually been pretty peaceful. Maybe cause we have NYC's former police chief, William Bratton. He kinda keeps the riff raff under control. If we could only get Rudy Giuliani as mayor to clean up this city here...

A Rainy Day in Southern California


California - land of eternal sunshine. Wait! What happened? It's raining cats and dogs here. Actually, there's not eternal sunshine, that whole thing is a myth. This is our rainy season. Some years we have a drought but usually we get quite a few storms here. In June we get our coastal eddies and the infamous June Gloom. August is usually our sunniest month, and hottest too. Although I can't complain. We don't get the humidity. OK, not true either. We do when we have the monsoon moisture coming up from Mexico and then we get the explosive thunderstorms. Fun!! Maybe tomorrow it will be clear.
