It feels more like Spring than Winter here in Oakland and the rest of the Bay. I actually am hoping for some rain, too, just so it'll feel like "winter" again.

Even when I was up in Humboldt County for the past school semester, it didn't rain up there as often as it usually does (it was reportedly only 37% of average). It was cold there, but also dry most days. I moved there in August with the expectation to be drenched, but...nope.
