The Great Los Angeles Rain Detective Agency (GLRADA) on the Case: How Much Wet Stuff Fell From the Sky Today?
Ah, Los Angeles. The land of sunshine, smog... and the occasional rogue rain shower that leaves you wondering if you stumbled into a scene from a dystopian movie. But fear not, weather-wearied citizen! The crack team at the Great Los Angeles Rain Detective Agency (GLRADA) has been on the case, tirelessly investigating this most perplexing precipitation predicament.
Following the Drizzle: Our Investigative Methods
Our investigation employed cutting-edge techniques (read: we refreshed our browser a bunch and made some phone calls). Here's a glimpse into the thrilling world of rain detection:
- Consulting the Cloud Whisperers: We reached out to our network of highly-trained cloud specialists (aka people who follow the National Weather Service on Twitter). Apparently, their intel suggests Los Angeles might have received the grand total of... zero inches of rain today. Shocking, we know.
- Interrogating the Sprinklers: We conducted an undercover operation, strategically placing a bucket under a suspected sprinkler system. After a grueling hour, the bucket remained resolutely empty. BUSTED, sprinklers! You're not fooling anyone today.
- The Official Puddle Patrol: Our crack team of puddle investigators (aka, we peered out the window) reported a distinct lack of puddle-y evidence. The streets are as dry as a martini after happy hour.
The Verdict: A Case of Missing Moisture
So, dear reader, it appears the rain gods have taken a vacation day. Los Angeles, it seems, will have to get its moisture fix elsewhere (cough, cough, pool floats, anyone?).
But hey, chin up! This might be the perfect opportunity to break out those dusty flip-flops and enjoy a day of glorious sunshine (don't forget the sunscreen!).
P.S. If you happen to spot any rogue raindrops, please contact the GLRADA immediately. We take these matters very seriously.
P.P.S. We're also accepting applications for new puddle investigators. Just sayin'.
