<Those Pacific hurricanes used to die when they hit the cold water of southern California. But that water is much warmer now and so the hurricanes can make it farther north.<

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_California_hurricanes

Since 1900, only four tropical cyclones have brought gale-force winds to the southwestern United States. They are an unnamed tropical storm that made landfall near San Pedro in 1939, the remnants of Hurricane Joanne in 1972, the remnants of Hurricane Kathleen in 1976, and Hurricane Nora in 1997 which entered California as a tropical storm. In addition, a recently discovered and reconstructed hurricane just missed making landfall in 1858.

A Hurricane just missed making landfall in California in 1858??? Can't be.. Water was too Cold back then... Before Global Warming..
