For all of you who think L.A. doesn't have weather
Fooey I say! We have weather. Sometimes water falls from the sky; sometimes it goes under 50 degrees; sometimes we have winds so strong that buildings built on rollers for earthquakes sway and windows bust out. On Friday December 22nd, we had the winds.
Actual quote regarding the wind:
"I almost didn't make it to work today. I had to walk [one block] and I almost got blown into the street."
Chicago, you ain't got nothing on us. (Either that or the person who said the above quote is a wuss. But, really, that's up to you. But it was CRAZY windy. I was getting seasick in the building.)

Just a helpful correction from the son of a Chicagoan.
Heh, tell that to my parents. They *still* tell the stories of how amazingly windy it was when they lived there, and omg the wind, and you can't believe the wind. So yeah.
I'd vote for wuss. LA is also the town where people don parkas and scarves and boots when the temp drops below 60.
