Global Warming?

It has been pouring rain here all afternoon, which is weird, because we never get rain in Los Angeles in October. Our rainy season starts in December, if it starts at all. Our typical fall weather is hot and dry, fading to cool and dry in November. And this is a tropical storm -- not one coming down from the north like the rain in winter. It's wet and warm. Something is not right with the weather, and it's making me feel uneasy, because there doesn't appear to be anything I can do about it. The weather seems to be strange all over these days.

The clouds were really pretty before the rain started this morning.



We don't often get big billowy clouds like this, because we don't often get rain. Or at least we didn't used to get rain. I don't know what the weather patterns are now.
