The NorCal scowl is an angry, bad tempered expression worn on the faces of many people who reside in Northern California. Many Northern Californians are known to wear a scowl as their primary expression which is why this particular scowl gets it own name complete with a geographic reference. The reason why Northern Californians wear the scowl is debatable. Some believe it is due to arrogance while others describe it as a defense mechanism or perhaps as an expression of anger over the high cost of living and bad traffic conditions that are especially prevalent in the Bay Area.
