I live in Southern California in the US (unfortunately). Today, it rained more than I have seen in at least 5 years, and this is the second day of rain. We haven’t had 2 consecutive days of rain here in years. Also, it’s not raining continuously. I was just sitting in my room, then suddenly heard a massive amount of wind, and then it rained extremely hard for about an hour and stopped abruptly, and then repeated again the same way. I’ve never seen such behavior before in my life. This is also after an entire year of clear skies and barely any rain.

There is so much rain that our National Weather service has issued a warning telling everyone to only travel if they are fleeing an area subject to flooding or under an evacuation order.

Unlike what many people believe, climate change isn’t just global warming, it also causes other changes, such as more erratic and severe weather patterns, which I guess is what I am seeing right now.

Has anyone else seen erratic weather patterns like this?
