But you really need to define what "Cold" really is:

How Cold Was It?
At 60 degrees: Californians reach for their sweaters.
At 50 degrees: Floridians pull out another blanket.
At 40 degrees: British Cars refuse to start.
At 30 degrees: Alaskans go swimming.
At 20 degrees: Folks in South Carolina start crying.
At 10 degrees: Real Estate values in Arizona start looking
reasonable.
At 0 degrees: Canadians go swimming.
At-10 degrees: Residents of Michigan go to Football games.
At-20 degrees: Canadians will put on a Tee-Shirt.
At-30 degrees: Alskans will close the Bathroom Window.
At-40 degrees: Swedish cars refuse to start.
At-50 degrees: Canadians will bring in their lawn furniture; if
they can find it in the snowbanks!
At-60 degrees: The thought of cutting firewood actually becomes
pleasant.
At-70 degrees: You CAN watch daytime television!
At-80 degrees: The dog is under the covers with you. Even if he does
have fleas!
At-90 degrees: Politicians will put their hands in their OWN pockets.

Well...... we are at the British car level,
it looks like a swamp out side to go along with that
who said it don't rain in California...

I would be willing to bet $Money$ that the people , "and I use that term loosely"
that are running this state will be telling us in about May that we are still in a drought,
and we must save water and not wqter the grass and such.
They are as I type this emptying the water sheds and opening all the gates on the dams
and draining the water only to have it go to the Pacific Ocean....

That's not too far from Tee-Shirt weather for us!
As far as the rain in California:

I like the poem. Covers the subject and to the point.
