But only if you're 30 minutes away, and that's the rain you want to beat.

No rain yet in the far east San Diego county, so we'll see. Supposedly a high chance of rain. We need it badly, so no complaints here.

8 south? Where in San Diego are you talking about? 8 goes east and west.

Water on the roads in San Diego County? Watch the accidents happen.

Ill conceded that one, i was being nice.... Years ago i did a ride along with a SDPD Lt friend of the Family and it was a REAL ride along.... It was a overcast day that turned really rainy at rush hour.... I never laughed so hard at peoples arrogance, stupidity and misfortune.... And im talking the Golden Triangle Area not the South Bay

I think it's hysterical that you all from SD can't handle temps below 62 nor above 82. A mist of water happens within 20 mile of there and it's full fledged panic. I can't even imagine what would happen if there was a threat of snow.

If I remember correctly, back in about '88 there was 1/2" of snow in LA. The city practically shut down. I can only imagine if that happened in SD. No-one would leave their homes for a month!

My Family and ex wife's family came out here 2 winters ago... It was around Christmas and temps stayed about 30 or so degrees, nice and warm. We did not get any snow while they were here but we had about 2 foot accumulation at home...

They got off the plane looking like Arctic Explorers California Style, Parkas in Bright summer colors... Knit stocking caps, Scarfs, Snow Boots, and Im guessing a few had thermal undies.... They all looked like that Kid in A Christmas Story and I'm in a Tee Shirt Jean's and my black insulated hoodie.. What a sight....

All complained incessantly about the cold they hardly left the house.... Yes it was a genuine Christmas Vacation National Lampoon Style...

We had a lot of winter activities planned but the no one could not bear the cold....

Yes i stayed outside putting up lights and I swear my Father in law pointed out a fault with a few of the lights I had in the trees... I dropped to the ground and laughed my *** off...

He really thought i was nuts when I did a brake job on my truck out side in the drive way.... Then i sealed my son-in-law is nuts when i climbed up on the porch roof to rake off the 2 ft of snow accumulation...

So that only leaves 360 days to ride.
