See comments above, CA does not have warm rain. It basically only rains in Jan/Feb in the 40s/50s. If I was in FL, I probably wouldn't care about the warm rain.

I don't watch the news, especially in the morning

Oh hey, a smartphone app, why didn't I think of that? In fact, why didn't anybody else think of that and suggest that as an answer to my question? I'm gonna do that right now, lemme just search all my pockets and figure out which one has my smartphone in it. Wait just a sec, it's gotta be around here somewhere...
So you only need this for like 2 months. Can turn on the computer but not look at one page? Hmmm. No smart phone. Hmmm. Tablet? Leave it on and plugged in. Have only one app/function. Wait, you would have to look at it, no good either. All is lost. Just take the car. Wait, you have to unlock it, turn the ignition on, look behind you and maybe use a turn signal. Yikes. Waaaay too much going on. Patagoinia houdini wind/rain shell is like 5 oz or so, packs up small. Just carry that. So many easy options available. That require a miniscule effort. Yikes.
