California is a very weird place and denial is the name of the game, esp. in areas that don't get predictable seasonal snow; to whit, "it's always warm and sunny". Hence, to recognize and prepare for hard freezes apparently constitutes surrender. These type products (a few) may be on the shelves in a month or so, and get picked up and the store won't order any more til next years emergency lol
edit: I've been here at this place for 36 yrs and the first 5 winters I had to fix frozen broken water lines; the weakest broke and then the next year next weaker, etc.
Snow shovels only get ordered once a year at hardware stores across the sun belt.
Afraid they might sit on the shelf for another year, not unusual.
