California's rainy season is in full swing after a dry start to winter. The state has experienced a series of storms, including December downpours in Ventura County and Santa Barbara, flash floods in San Diego, and mudslides in Los Angeles. These deluges have helped prevent a return to the drought that has plagued the state for the past decade.
Despite the significant rainfall in Southern California, it remains uncertain if the state will experience a very wet year overall. Northern California is approaching its annual average precipitation, with some time left in the wet season.
