Fire and Rain : California?s Changing Weather and Climate

This book shows how California?s weather and climate have drastically changed and what we can expect in the near future. California?s weather and climate are becoming as common a topic in the media as inflation and wars. It comes into our lives during heat waves when we require more cooling and during droughts when we are asked to limit our use of water. We may not be able to visit state and national parks when fires rage nearby. Indeed, California does have weather. LaDochy and Witiw dispel the erroneous myths about the state?s climate in a colorful, entertaining way. California does have seasons. It does rain in Southern California. It is not always sunny and mild throughout the year. And not all El Nin?os bring abundant rainfall every time throughout the state.
