Holy moley on rye - page eight! It is now pouring. I wish I could use the word ERSATZ regarding the rain, but I'm afraid it's anything but.
Frankly, at the end of the day, I would not be surprised if it's revealed that the government has been doing some kind of secret testing and that the unusual weather is due to it. Call me paranoid, but this does not make sense. It is, I believe, the heaviest rainy season Los Angeles has ever had.
