When I was a kid the song "I Love A Rainy Night" by Eddie Rabbitt (no, not Eddie Money and yes, Rabbit was his real name) was popular on the radio. It was one of the original crossover hits. In 1981 it reached #1 on the charts in country, pop, and adult contemporary. One of the lines was "I love a rainy night... (because) I wake up to a sunny day."

Well, here in Pasadena, I went to bed on a rainy night last night....

And woke up to a sunny day this morning. But that's not all the morning held. Look at the mountains on the far right of the photo....

I woke up to a snowy day!

Yes, there's snow in Los Angeles. Those mountains are in Los Angeles County. They're the San Gabriel Mountains, sometimes also called the Angeles Crest, and the peaks are up to 10,000' high. When it rains here in the winter, it often snows there.
