The warm water caused record high daytime readings along the coast. Unofficial readings of 95 degrees were recorded on two days at normally-cool Malibu. The average high temperature last month at the official Downtown Los Angeles measuring station, at USC, was 75.6 degrees, 7 degrees warmer than the next-hottest October, back in 1983, which also was an El Nino year.

Cities Are Getting Hotter, New Research http://consumer.healthday.com/disea...tting-hotter-new-research-reports-696015.html
Flagstaff AZ got nine inches of snow breaking a record set back in 1925. Just has to be man made global warming. kpho.com/flagstaff-has-record-snow-another-round-may-hit-next-week
Because of global warming, we have greater evaporation, which means that we will see more precipitation. And sometimes that means more snow.
Often think about that, toiling across an asphalt parking lot in summer: all these vast expanses of black hydrocarbons soaking up the sunshine, can't be good.
Maybe they should mandate that all roofs be be painted white or silver to counter the black asphalt roads. obamas-climate-guru-paint-your-roof-white-1691209.html The Antarctica Ice sheet growth is actually cutting the oceans rise due to the massive ice and snow increase. nasa.gov/nasa-study-mass-gains-of-antarctic-ice-sheet-greater-than-losses
Don't misuse the science... "If all the ice in West Antarctica melts and slides into the sea, it is likely to contribute several meters to sea level rise. That process is already underway, says Scambos, and may happen over the next few centuries, regardless of what is going on in the eastern highlands." http://news.nationalgeographic.com/...ce-growing-shrinking-glaciers-climate-change/ http://ecowatch.com/2015/05/28/nasa-antarctica-ice-shelf/
Hi All: Well fortunately there is a reprieve as temps the last few nights in Southern California have been wonderfully cool. When performing the 2016 Prius Calibration drive the other night I saw 39 degrees F right across from the Mormon Temple on the 5 in San Diego. Low 70s in the day and high 40s/Low 50s at night. Finally. Wayne
Hi Wayne, Looks like the mountains north east of you got a good amount of snow. latimes.com/la-me-g-sierra-snow
Hi All: Just when I thought we would receive a little relief in Southern California, the temps rise again. Third week of November and this was yesterday morning. High of 84 predicted today. Wayne
Want to trade? I'd be fine with another drive through California this time of year We had a very warm first half of November, but now we're back to typical temperatures.
