Description
Here in California, it's basically one 12 month long season with a bunch of rain, all at once, at the beginning of the year. I do miss have four distinct seasons. A bitterly bone cold blustery snow driven Winter, followed by a lovely Spring filled with tornadoes and snow melt floods. Those stifling high humidity stagnant-air Summers and Autumns, with the acrid choking smoke of burning leaves and the return of all those higher heating bills.

With ya Dave....I grew up with all the "fairy tale" seasons. Moved to Jacksonville FL, a northern southern space. No seasons per say...Spring=summer really fast, don't blink. Summer=HOT HOT HOT, RAIN RAIN RAIN. Fall=HOT RAIN AND HURRICANS, don't blink here comes winter...Winter=Hurricans(though they begin mid summer)mild temps, most people wear jackets as the temperature plumets to 70 degrees...lol. No fall foliage. I rememeber as a child in the 60's, California didn't get much rain? Seasons change, and some don't even see it, or know it exists. Thanks Dave! (=

Here in Kansas, we don't have four seasons, we have five: Spring (short), Summer very long, First Autumn, Second Autumn (both way too short), and Winter (a lot shorter than Summer but way longer than Spring or Fall). "First" Autumn is like a normal Fall, but the leaves are more "earth-toned" and muted than brilliant. It lasts about three to four weeks. This is followed by "Second" Autumn which is when all the trees are bare except for the cedars and the cottonwoods, which are a brilliant golden yellow. That usually last a week, but this year it went on for closer to two. I still miss the seasons we had in Michigan, when I was a little boy.

Those storms were insane dude! Mudslides and floods everywhere! Cool image you've done to illustrate the californian season mystery.

fd, you've outdone yourself again. Fabulous to show the fourth dimension, it's a loop. Whereas, in retrospect and aforethought, due acknowledgment for thinking outside the box always, exemplary here, therefore, a Vote!
