Related: About this forumIt Never Rains in Southern California
1972 song by Albert Hammond. Heard this on a recent edition of Brad Friedman's Green News Report.
Posting because the ten-day forecasts in both San Francisco and Los Angeles have NO RAIN for the next 10 days. It sucks how all the precipitation (snow that is) has to fall in the Northeast and Great Lakes regions!

It was usually raining when they played it. Man it pours.

because "none in the foreseeable future" freaks people out.
I remember the song but don't remember it ever raining at the time.

I'm out of work, I'm out of my head
Out of self respect, I'm out of bread
I'm underloved, I'm underfed, I wanna go home

want to come to CA but also want some waterworks: (coastal) Humboldt is the place to be. There has been some form of precipitation for almost the entire past week, and is expected to stay that way until at least Friday.
