Didn't get rain here today, but arctic Texas summer is expected to continue next week even as we're approaching the peak-heat part of the season. Highs in the 80s all week... 80s in late july into early August?!!!!
Blake , it had nothing to do with "pussy liberals"... sometimes Joey is just a regular guy, calf tattoos and all. Cut 'em some slack.
Joey, yeah I agree, going from 100s in August to 80s in L.A. was great. The next day, going from the Grand Canyon to Flagstaff down to Phoenix was .......not. 57 and cloudy in Flagstaff and 117 and crystal clear in Phoenix, same day, a little over an hour drive.
Wow what a forecast for the next few days
You're using the Weather.com forecast right? That is always super bullish on rain. NWS has us 86-90 Monday through Thursday which will be really nice but they don't do a 14 day. KENS 14 day has up back up around 95 by the 29th which would still be really nice but I wouldn't put too much stock in a 14 day other than when we have nasty long lived heat domes over us, in which cases the 14 days have been a lot more accurate.
If you mean 2011 that was the gold standard for trash summers here before 2022 and 2023. Yeah my first day of school at UCLA it was 85 and people were complaining like they were melting and thought I was being sarcastic when I asked if a cold front had just come in. Had no idea LA had such amazing weather and did no research on the city itself, I just wanted in UCLA's math department. Came to find out 85 genuinely was pretty hot for the area as summer days were mostly like 73-76 in Westwood. Though I bet a lot of the complainers were commuters from the San Fernando Valley where 105-110 is pretty normal during Santa Anna season (which the first day of school was in since UCLA starts really late in the year in late September).
yes, and that's the only reasonably inexpensive part of the LA metro... for a reason. You're basically living in Phoenix or Texas with less humidity for several times the price.
Yes
The heat ridge seems to not like Texas in 2024
Hoping this cool forecast shuts down momentum for a hot August the same way Harvey ended our summer in 2017 (though that was already a really tame summer before Harvey). I imagine there will still be some days of 100 in August but would be awesome if we finished with less than 20 days of 100+ this year. We're at 12 right now, with 21 the average taken over the previous 30 years.
Yeah you're not kidding about home prices. My roommate's friend is the brother of a very famous multiplatinum musician and even he didn't have the money to buy his mom a home in LA proper but instead up in the valley (used to go hang at his mom's house a lot back then since they had a nice pool). And this was before they really shot up in price in the last decade. Though maybe that's an indictment of the music industry too.

there's absolutely no way in I'd pay California premium to live in Texas weather just because of "reasonable access" to better parts of Cali or L.A. metro. Also they have rolling brownouts there that are way worse than CPS or other ERCOT customers go through.
the other thing about California is EVERYONE, adults in their 30s, have ing roommates. Why would anyone over 22 want to have a ing roommate?
The cost of rent and living due to state and local government regulation in California means more people have to have roommates and pool resources. Not about that life.
Only time I ever lost power in LA was when Enron was cutting it on purpose to tank Gray Davis' approval numbers since Cheney saw him as a threat to Bush in the 2004 election.
That sounds like a conspiracy theory.
Though, Halliburton has been known to do some shady and Cheney was certainly in bed with them
It's not a conspiracy theory, Enron was shown to be shutting down power generation to artificially constrain supply the same way is done in Texas. Then they could price-gouge California and damage their leaders politically, and they did both with their artificial rolling blackouts. Enron's bull got Gray Davis recalled and replaced with Schwarzenegger as governor.
It's always hot in for cuckold males like BlaKKKe.
When I first visited it was closer to 2005-2006 if I remember correctly. Either way, the weather was amazing! In 2022 it def was much hotter and I was out there during October. CLIMATE CHANGE!
Sept/October is the worst time of the year to visit Cali. It's their "summer"When I first visited it was closer to 2005-2006 if I remember correctly. Either way, the weather was amazing! In 2022 it def was much hotter and I was out there during October. CLIMATE CHANGE!
Oh I believe the first part about Enron price gouging and profiteering, but it was part of Enron's bigger fraud scheme of profiteering and defrauding the masses so rich greedy executives could make more money, not necessarily targeting politicians.
The first two times going out there were during the summer so I suppose you're right because those two times the weather felt really great. The last time though, not that it was horrific like we get here in Texas, it was pretty hot.
September and October is when the Santa Anna winds blow in from the desert in the LA area so it's the major fire season and far and away the hottest part of the year. Even though I think I saw a thunderstorm maybe twice in the ten years or so I lived there it's pretty normal to have 50-60 mph winds and when the Santa Annas start blowing in. Would hate to ride a motorcycle that time of year.
Visit the rust belt or northeast and go leaf peeping. there's so many better places to be that time of year than Florida or Texas or Cali.
Huh? Texas is amazing in October. Definitely the time of year to hit all the cool desert in West Texas like Big Bend and Guadalupe Mtns.
