"Breezy with gusts below the passes and canyons".

SoCal code for "Santa Anas". Its in the 70s, near 80 today, low humidity and
there's a fairly consistent 15-20mph wind from the North East. Further
inland you've got overturned semis and sandstorms in the desert. (Its
fortunately too late in the season for fires because these are the winds
that crank up a good firestorm.)

I still haven't found a good slope to use these winds. I've been looking on
and off for years. Its easy enough to find a slope facing the right way but
one with usable lift rather than a microscopically thin lift band surrounded
by vicious turbulence has eluded me so far. Its definitely foamie weather if
I could just find the right hill!

(Yes. I know its January. Yes, we really do get four seasons here. At least
four, in fact.)
