“Storms in California don’t move across the country to DC”

“You’re joking, right ? Storms move west to east …”

No, he’s correct. Weather systems in California almost never affect the East Coast. There the weather systems come out of the northwest (high pressure mostly), southwest,(usually low pressure) or southeast (also low pressure systems, the worst being hurricanes).

Canada and Louisiana are better lead indicators than California. Jet stream steering currents are almost never straight across the US.
