...from last week's
Round Table:
We have microclimates! Hellloooooooooo!!! We're not the ones living in a hot, humid, desert!
Our weather can differ 30 degrees F on any given day within ten miles.
Can you SoCal'ers say that? Uh...no.

Uh...yes !
Lake Arrowhead versus the lowlands down to the south, just for one !
I probably dislike Southern California more than you do, Rick, but I demand accuracy ! · · ·

Yes, accuracy is highly prized. Take for example my example of 'microclimates' being different within a mere 10 miles away.
Take your example of 'microclimate' of Lake Arrowhead and the flatlands being, say, realistically, 50 miles away.
microclimate (mkr-klmt)
The climate of a small, specific place within a larger area. An area as small as a yard or park can have several different microclimates depending on how much sunlight, shade, or exposure to the wind there is at a particular spot.
Linky dink Yes, accuracy can not be too over-rated.
