Earthquake Weather

They say there's no such thing as earthquake weather, but I don't believe them. I've lived in Southern California my whole life and we always have the wierdest weather before an earthquake. These last couple of weeks qualify.

After a hideous heatwave--yesterday was the hottest, most unbearable day yet--thunder roared all night long and this morning we had a HUGE downpour of rain. A little while later it rained again and then it stopped as if it never happened. And you'd think we'd have the benefit of a little cooling off afterwards, right? (After all this isn't D.C. or the deep south.) But no, it was awful today. No sun, but still hot and horribly humid. I soaked in a tub of cold water for an hour and read a book this afternoon and still--yuck! And yes we do have air conditioning but it was just so humid it didn't seem to help.

Mark my words, there will probably be an earthquake very soon.
