Today in Sacramento = 80 degrees and clear. I've been driving topless all week. Can anyone out there beat that?

Nope, but overall, CA has received all of Washington's rain and we have had a spectacular winter here. Wife has ridden her Harley to work almost all winter with only a few exceptions.

Blizzard conditions, icy roads, gusty wind and 20 degrees but equivalent to 0 with the wind chill.

How's that

What I forgot to mention is our gas prices are moving upward in the two dollar/gallon range and home pricing is becoming something only the rich can afford. I guess it all equals out in the end. You might say, we in California have great weather if you can afford it.

Beat that? No Problem... here in the Southern Cali Desert (Palm Springs) its currently 87 degrees and its only 10:30 AM, expected to reach 92 +. I drove to work topless at 6am this morning,

and filled my tank up with gas that cost $2.60 a gallon. Oh yeah and housing prices here are now upwards of $270. per sq. ft. We do take the good with the bad.
