Just like all of the cutoff lows we had last Oct/Nov, this thing favored San Diego County. Still more rain to come, but probably the brunt of it is over.

Temecula recorded 0.51" inch overnight, most of it occurring just after midnight. I was woken up at 4:30 AM this morning by an extremely loud burst of thunder, and it was raining at the time. No lightning was reported, however.
This storm pushed our season totals above that of 2003-04's this morning, which was 9.13" in Temecula. On an unrelated note - it reached 102F on this day in 2004 in Temecula.

Not true - most locations in San Diego County recorded more or less the same rainfall totals as the rest of Southern California in general, except for the mountain communities. The NWS has posted storm totals for various sites around Southern California. Areas in the San Fernando Valley and Ventura County recorded surprisingly low rainfall, however. -------------------- Temecula Seasonal Precipitation 2012-2013: 7.27" (-6.47") Normal to-date precipitation: 13.74" East Murrieta Seasonal Precipitation 2012-2013: 7.11" Season began July 1st, 2012.

We received exactly .50" from this storm, Which granted is much less than what we thought this one would give us....For an end of April storm, I ain't complaining one bit. -------------------- 2012-2013 Winter Season Totals.

Indeed. On April 20th 2007, we also received a storm that was an "equal-opportunity" storm, and when I say that, I mean it generally produced the same totals for everywhere - half an inch. No areas were favored, and none were ignored. Given the very weak rainy season we had that winter, that April storm turned about to be the wettest of the entire 2006-2007 water year for nearly everywhere in Southern California. And it was only half an inch.  I remember that day because I had to drop off some relatives who were staying with us for a while at LAX airport, and it was pouring on the I-15 freeway near Corona. That was the only storm of that season where I could use the word "pouring".

I only got 0.03"... oh well, it was during the night anyway when I couldn't enjoy it, so I prefer that it wasn't anything spectacular.

Only .35" here with all said and done, eh... well at least the weather itself was interesting with the random showers, tropical feel, and down bursts

Some light showers are still popping up around the Inland Empire this morning, managed to add another 0.05" at my house (0.40" total). Temecula has had 0.41" since midnight.

If LAX manages to reach 64 F today, it will be warmer than it was last Saturday during our "heat wave".
Rainfall totals over Orange County have been disappointing. |

Rainfall totals over Orange County have been disappointing. You can't count on cutoff lows to produce copious amounts of rainfall here. The baseline for cutoff lows is generally half an inch for most areas, no matter what time of year it is.

I'm creating a new thread but I'm not sure yet on what the subject matter will be.
