They say SoCal has a "Mediterranean climate." I read these books when they
were first published. "Revised editions" have since been released:

Also by Mike Davis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_of_Quartz (1990)

Look at the "Mediterranean" today:

Spain:

Portugal:

Greece:

Turkey:

THAT'S your "Mediterranean climate."

Get used to it, Angelenos...
