To all the people around the United States and the rest of the world who are freezing, stuck in fifty-mile long traffic jams, sitting for half a day on an airport tarmac waiting to take off, shoveling snow and all the other things I've been seeing and hearing on the news...you can be forgiven if you're feeling a little skeptical about the whole global warming thing.
It feels so unreal watching what hardships you're enduring. Because here, where I live, this is our weather report.
Today...Mostly sunny. Highs from the lower to mid 70s at the beaches to the lower to mid 80s inland. Local north winds 15 to 25 mph with gusts to 40 mph below passes and canyons from Malibu to Hollywood.
Tonight...Mostly clear. Lows in the 50s...except in the lower 60s in breezy locations. Areas of north to northeast winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts over 45 mph below passes and canyons from Malibu to Hollywood.
Saturday...Mostly sunny. Highs from the lower to mid 70s at the beaches to the lower to mid 80s inland. Areas of north to northeast winds 20 to 30 mph with gusts over 45 mph below passes and canyons from Malibu to Hollywood in the morning...diminishing during the afternoon.
That's right. I expect the temperature to get over 80 degrees today out by my house. It's shirt-sleeves and shorts weather. Margueritas at the outdoor cantina. That kind of thing.
I'm sorry to have to report that dismal news for you cold-weather types, but facts are facts!
