Another rainy day in Northern California!

I can tell that it's warm outside, but it's raining again here in the San Francisco Bay Area. This has been one of the wettest Winters (and early Springs) I can remember since the mid-1990s. Today's rain is what I call a Seattle-style rain: slow and steady, rather than a flash-flood-inducing downpour. I'll take it. My garden will take it. The reservoirs and snow-pack will take it. How's the weather where you are?

@AliCanary Don't move to LA. But the people were really nice there the last time I visited! I thought they were supposed to be snobby or something.

The forecast calls for rain today, but it's mostly sunny. Kinda windy, though.

Is rain better than snow at this point?

@1hopefulman Here, I see that the pavement is wet, so we had some rain last night, but it's not raining now. Are you hoping for rain where you live. You know that Californians (if they're wise) never complain about rain.

That's wonderful that CA is getting so much rain. It's raining here right now, but we normally get rain each week throughout the year. It is chilly today.

@SophiaMorros said she's seeing some snow in NC! Is she North of you?

@TheHorse Not sure where she is. I did hear that they had a dusting of snow about 100 miles to the west. It was quite cold here today.

@norcal I'm approximately between Winston-Salem and Greensboro to the north. I'm not actually in Belews Creek but it's one of the municipalities my weather app keeps trying to set as my location, so it's close enough.

@TheHorse - Yep, we had a weather system come in from the southeast, of all things--people farther south got even more snow than we did! It's supposed to be in the upper 60s and 70s the rest of the week, which is far more typical at this time of year.

Getting better. It's supposed to be in the upper 60s tomorrow, just in time for miniature golf season to start!!!

Hearing that slow and steady rain is a real joy to me. As a child on a farm, such rain was welcomed as the life-giving source it was.

That's how I feel about it. That is also why I loved living in Iowa, where corn, soy and hogs ruled.
