Yay for socal. You have to love a place where it's 70* in December and you can go from the beach to skiing in a day :).

Los Angeles suburb :)

By Nj777 (Nj777) on Sunday, March 07, 2004 - 11:06 pm: Edit

60 Degrees- Saint louis, MO- best weather ever for me. anything above or below that gets uncomfortable. And it was so sunny this weekend

You guys go be another state. We're the real California. So Cal has no culture...

By Polka (Polka) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 12:10 am: Edit

i'm in socal. i hated the weather today it was ranging from 84-93 and i was stuck in traffic in downtown la because i had an appointment in a building right next to the marathon route. however, a couple days ago the weather was quite deliciously mid 70s. i guess it all balances out quite favorably

Watch your self Lame-o.

Hey now, I kinda like it. In a strictly man-to-man sort of way... not that there's anything wrong with that... oh nevermind.

GO NOR-CAL...don't get me wrong SoCal is nice...to visit

By Eliel (Eliel) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 02:14 pm: Edit

its all about CALIFORNIA anyway. Especially SOCAL!!!

!VIVA SoCal!:)

You guys are completely ridiculous. Everybody knows New Hampshire is where it's at.


Not.

By Artic (Artic) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 06:09 pm: Edit

Yah, we all love the sweet 75 degree winters here but take it from me, in june- August it is 90-110 consistantly for 90 days.... it is by no means worth it. Especially when you have cheap parents who think the AC is a valuable commodity and won't use it. Late Oct- Feb is the time to be here. Today it was about 90 in Mission Viejo where I live and it is only March 8th.... That is just not cool :P pun very intended. I cant wait to go to college b/c all the schools I applied to are near the ocean where it stays like 20 degrees cooler. Man that will be awesome.

By Watchout (Watchout) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 06:15 pm: Edit

its a blazing 28 here in PA
you all are lucky!

By Demonllama (Demonllama) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 10:01 pm: Edit

heh...that's funny. i lived in socal for half my life and now i live in norcal, and i have to say, norcal is much better ;)

living in the bay area is awesome...it's great to live in such a liberal place. you can't get much more liberal than san francisco.

norcal's weather is just as great as socal's- it was 79º here today. it was 82º in san francisco. and there's less humidity. :P

By Aerin04 (Aerin04) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 10:46 pm: Edit

yep, norcal is the only way to go.

and the weather was SERIOUSLY AWEOSOME today!

By Thebarnrat (Thebarnrat) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 11:50 pm: Edit

I could do without the summer weather. I live about thirty minutes inland in a desert-y area and it's about 107* through the ENTIRE summer. It's not rare to have days that are 113-117* either. But still, Santa Monica, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Sunset strip, Venice ?????? Can't beat it.

By Memememe (Memememe) on Monday, March 08, 2004 - 11:56 pm: Edit

My pic? It was 3:00 a.m., I was in MIT, I was tired, and someone had a camera. No comment.

Aerin!!! What school do you go to

By Beanoctco (Beanoctco) on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 - 12:50 am: Edit

What about Denver? We have more than 300 days of sunshine per year - more than Florida. Today, it was a sunny 70 degrees.

By Artic (Artic) on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 - 02:01 am: Edit

I don't know how many days a year are sunny in California (not counting coast b/c of marine layer) but if I had to guess I would say we have well over 320 days a year that are sunny.

By Coffeeshopgirl (Coffeeshopgirl) on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 - 04:22 am: Edit

90 degrees today! and it's not even spring yet!

in so cal, it's really hard to stay in class...

By Aerin04 (Aerin04) on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 - 05:51 pm: Edit

Collegeguy... guaranteed you've never heard of it. It's in Marin County... Novato High. Where are you?

By Becks777 (Becks777) on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 - 06:42 pm: Edit

"90 degrees today!"- Wow thats hot, and i mean really hot, especially at this time. I have never been a fan of hot weather- with all that stickiness and sweat and everything.....I was in the bayarea few months back and the weather was awesome over there-like in the 70s, plus the SFO winds made it even more cooler and very comfortable. If thats what the weather is everyday in SOCAL then i m lucky to be living in the midwest.

And yeah SOCAL people- ever heard about season change- the 4 diferent seasons?? :)

By Rowan (Rowan) on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 - 07:02 pm: Edit

What are these "seasons" I keep hearing about?

I know "hot" and "cold." (I live in the mountains, so I am of a special group that understands the "cold/snow" concept.)

;)

Looking out the window, it's really hard to remember that it's March and technically still winter. It's /gorgeous/.

By Becks777 (Becks777) on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 - 11:04 pm: Edit

Fall and spring. I dont mind living in two months of freezing cold here in chicago for these two seasons :)

By Weener (Weener) on Wednesday, March 10, 2004 - 12:30 am: Edit

GO SAN FRANCISCO..... so. cal is so overrated

By Jlq3d3 (Jlq3d3) on Wednesday, March 10, 2004 - 01:44 am: Edit

So cal has seasons but in a different way. We choose what season we want on any given day. Lets say its march, like it is now. In LA, it is 78 degrees, nice spring weather. I can a) choose to stay and enjoy it. B) Go to palm springs (the desert) and enjoy 90 degree weather (summer), or c) go to big bear (the mountains) and enjoy winter and sking. All with in a short drive.

By Eliel (Eliel) on Thursday, March 11, 2004 - 01:15 pm: Edit

Jlq3d3 (Jlq3d3) you are sooo correct!
And....Dont forget the beach and TJ for those great taquitos:)lol

go southern california

By Britbrat8604 (Britbrat8604) on Sunday, March 14, 2004 - 05:15 am: Edit

Seriously.....Southern california...specifically ORANGE COUNTY (woohoo) rocks...hellllllo they made a movie and a tv show about us! BUt honestly...its embarrassing-we are NOT all spoiled brats...a lot are though, including me (i have been in denial about being spoiled...but too many people have proved it :(..oh well) As for the movie...we dont wear black bikinis to funerals! BUT kobe bryant goes to my church and brad pitt and jennifer aniston go to my sisters costco...i swear im going to stake out the place for a month just to meet them!

By Dday2004 (Dday2004) on Tuesday, March 16, 2004 - 05:05 pm: Edit

The one thing I find weird about Californians is that most of them (key word: most) seem to think California is the best/only place in the world and seem quite ignorant to the rest of the world, or even country. They seem to be all out with this "Cali Pride" thing. I dunno, maybe that's just the people I've met? Don't get me wrong, I like the place...I've lived in SoCal for a few years and it was tiite, but I just found the majority of Californians' obsession with the state a bit odd.

By Becks777 (Becks777) on Tuesday, March 16, 2004 - 05:13 pm: Edit

Dday2004, thats how it always works. People from beverly hills think they r from the best town in the world and they do not care about anything else. People from LA think they r from the best city in the world and they do not care about anything else. People from southern cal think they r from the best part of CAL and they dont care about anything else. people from CAL think they r from the best atate in America and they dont care about anything else. People from the US think they r from the best country in the world and they do not care about anything else.

By Dday2004 (Dday2004) on Tuesday, March 16, 2004 - 05:37 pm: Edit

haha yeah I definitely agree there, but I don't see people from other states/cities in other states as...loyal...to their town/state. and yes, having lived outside the US, I definitely know what you're talking about with the "People from the US think they r from the best country in the world and they do not care about anything else" statement. But why the Californians within the US?

By Eliel (Eliel) on Tuesday, March 16, 2004 - 06:50 pm: Edit

...well it's like so obvious dude...come on now, like as if...!

By Dday2004 (Dday2004) on Tuesday, March 16, 2004 - 07:23 pm: Edit

haha riiite...that was interesting

By Thedad (Thedad) on Tuesday, March 16, 2004 - 07:41 pm: Edit

We don't suffer from California Pride. We see good things about other states but are mostly glad we're not in Texas. Or Mississippi. Or Nebraska. Or Kentucky. Or-- You know, you might have a point there.

SO CAL IS THE BEST, san fran sux!!!!!! how could you live in a place where it rains almost everyday...uggg

By Savedbythebell7 (Savedbythebell7) on Thursday, March 18, 2004 - 02:05 am: Edit

I'm a norcal kid at heart, but I can't wait to be in So-cal next year.....flip flops 12 months of the year in San Diego....not 9 months..not too mention better surfing and beaches. Pacifica and Bolinas get old! Go so-cal! Go nor-cal. GO CALIFORNIA.

"how could you live in a place where it rains almost everyday...uggg"

San Francisco is not Seattle.

By Aerin04 (Aerin04) on Thursday, March 18, 2004 - 02:22 am: Edit

i was born and raised in san fran... since when does it rain every day?

and yeah, it rains, but at least we have more than one season. :)

By Araesova (Araesova) on Thursday, March 18, 2004 - 07:16 pm: Edit

lol i was just kidding guys. I went to San Francisco once in the Summer and it was raining like crazy so I go the impression that it rains there everyday :)

By Eliel (Eliel) on Friday, March 19, 2004 - 12:52 am: Edit

Why would someone want the whole "four seasons", when they could have at least ONE GOOD season?
We Californians don't mind one GREAT season, at all! Life's good, that's why I choose to stay here in California for my college experience...and eventually all my life(I better)!:)
