Hey, Blizzard Members. Can You Get Online?

Mac, you know Moi might have a better winter temperature but the air quality really sucks. I remember when I left LA for the last time when I moved north, I had tiers in my eyes, not because I was leaving it was because the sky had this greenish yellow look, smelled bad, and caused you grab your gas mask. Today living here going out doors and breathing fresh air every single day, never have an air quality problem is well I will take the winter here to the bad air there any day, how about you?

River, DEAR -

Moi lives by the OC coastline about a mile in as the crow flies on a bluff with line of sight to the ocean.

Air usually best here, as in Green Circles. Rarely Yellow like a little bit inland.

MacWolf's area gets Deep Orange and Red circles on occasion.

I have lived in Milwaukee and Nashville.

Both seem more prone to clear pollution as ozone.

My asthma would feel it but, eyes did not see it.

It is mostly about, what the government chooses to measure or not. And the idea if you can't see it, it must be clean air.

Breathing easy.

When the apocalypse hits in 2012, MOI will be the first to slide into the sea.

No way!

The island of Califo-nia will be surrounded by the reformed Midwest Sea and sunken Rockies.

We may loose a little of MacWolf's neighborhood along with Arizona and Nevada but

a world without Califo-nia is as unimaginable as a world without Virginia, or Santa Claus.

To rerail the thread to what its about after Moi hijacked a thread he has no idea what its about.

No Dave, the east coast is sliding into the ocean... quite literally. The west coast is emerging from it. That's why our mountains are, well, mountains, and your mountains are what we in the west consider hills.

This is true, the mountains on the west coast are younger, bigger, taller, more impressive. what you have on the east coast are hills.

The Allegheny mountains have withstood the test of time.

Those fragile, fault ridden upstarts will just crumble when the world ends.

And Califo-nia has no blizzards except in vacation land or the high Sierras. If Califo-nia was blizzard free it would take from the State's diversity. So we keep them in certain areas as one might expect a blizzard, but not among the mass population.

From L.A. one might drive to snow in Big Bear in about two hours, traffic willing. And it can blizzard in Big Bear. But mostly it just snows there in winter.

Califo-nia, Blizzard Free, mostly

and the most mountainous mountains within a short distance.

The Sierra Nevada range.

The Coastal range up north where it comes out of the ocean most vertically.

A big boring valley between as grows lots of food.

The two ranges meet near L.A. and continue south as "foothills" .

I wish I had the opportunity to learn some geology because unlike the East, Califo-nia geology changes so fast in a short distance compared to, Oklahoma.

I'm waiting for promised rain. That 50F at night sure feels cold

Moi

Califo-nia

Mostly Blizzard Free and knows a mountain from a hill.

When Brown becomes Governor we get our "r" back.

LOL Guess you never looked at the plate techtonics. The atlantic is widening while the Ca. plate is sliding under the Pacific plate. Funny too Granite sure as a hell out wears sandstone it doesn't was away in the rain in a mudslide. Sure our Mountains are shorter but the weather is wilder in them. Highest sustained wind speed ever recorded was on Mt. Washington.
