Heading OT, but there are distinct indications that there may be an El Nino this year - and quite possibly a strong one.

There are presently indications that California may experience impacts as early as the coming summer-including the possibility of unusually warm temperatures and perhaps even some very unusual warm-season precipitation events. The million-dollar question, however, is what effects El Nino might have on precipitation during the 2014-2015 rainy season. For now, I’ll say this: next winter has the potential to be very different indeed than the exceptionally dry one we just experienced.

I think the AC will get tested this weekend so I can avoid the rush, if needed.
