That is what I got here... 85 degrees.
Still 75 at 11:45 PM. It was down to 69, then the Santa Ana winds kicked up again and raised the temperature.

But at least its cooling down at night. Nice to feel a cold breeze coming thru the windows.

LA is mild compared to many other places. Its not too cold nor is it too humid. I've lived in really cold places where the air from your breathe would freeze on your glasses and also hot places where it reaches 125-130 during August. LA is nice ... I don't see what people are complaining about?

I don't either.
I live in Belgium (Europe), and here it's always cold, it always rains, sometimes days go by without seeing a beam of sunshine. And that goes for fall, winter, spring AND summer! Really depressing sometimes
The temperature forecasted for tomorrow is 8°C (I think that's about 46F?), and this is considered warm for this time of year. In the summer we rarely go above 25°C (77F). And if it does it's usually followed by some raging thunderstorms as downpayment..
Would you people prefer that over the beautifull weather Cali has almost all year round? If so give me a call, lets schedule an exchange
If I had the chance I would move to California as of tomorrow!

I'm sorry if my english isn't that great

Your English is fine!

Everything is relative to each person's preferences. Our lament in SoCal is that the rain season is so short & heat waves this late in autumn just makes life all the more unpleasant. Think about it. Would you really enjoy 90+F\ 32C in mid November? Summer is a long season in California!

I don't blame you!

I take advantage of the warm weather when I can. For instance, last Thursday, I could not help going for a bike ride because it was almost midnight and still 75 degrees! It is great jumping onto a bike, wearing just regular pants and a T-shirt and going for a late-night ride. I've done the same thing in the months of Decemeber and January, too. I remember a smiliar night ride in December... 10:30 PM and 70 degrees. (Due to the Santa Ana winds.)

You're right about those preferences.
To be honest, I've never even experienced temperatures like 90F/32C before.
In my ears that sounds like heaven.
Tomorrowmorning I will be scraping of the ice of my car before I go to work, would you enjoy that instead of beautifull weather? And it will only get worse from this point. In a couple of weeks the first snowflakes may fall, and as it already begins to freeze at night, the roads will become truly dangerous.. Not even to mention the salt they scatter that will wreck your car along with the humidity.
But I understand your point, as the continuous rain we have here makes life unpleasant, maybe long periods of heat can trigger the same effect.
Although I prefer your situation anytime..

Yes it is, It's very beautiful. But my mind will probably change when I will be defrosting my car tomorrowmorning..
Actually we really don't get snow that often in Belgium. This is a country of rain . When it snows the temperature fluctuates just above freezing point, so it melts rapidly. When it's freezing it usually doesn't snow at all.
I'm glad you're looking forward to expect rain (Strange people in cali :P)
But I can imagine it's a relief after the fires that took place the past couple of weeks..
If you love rain that much you should move to Belgium, rain all year long...
