Umm...

Do your homework. The northwest part of CA is damp with tons of rain. Eureka and north the grass stays green all summer. 60 plus inches of rain a year is not dry
Maybe he meant the northeast corner? That would make more sense. I think Eureka gets about 40 inches of rain a year? Crescent City may get more than 60. But I have recently read that even Eureka doesn't sustain green grass through the dry season.

And if you just get a little ways outside of a major city, you may then being a slave to the weather, or her commander, et.

I always wanted to live in WA (preferably western WA) so badly after I finish college. Would I need to own a snowblower and a shovel? I don't mind like 2 inches of snow, but I don't want snow like the East Coast.
