Control-Z
(15,682 posts)1. We got two days/nights in Orange County, Ca
just this past weekend. Pretty good rain too.

(111,254 posts)2. High elevation snowpack is even more useful
and the whole west needs it desperately. Let's hope El Nino delivers what he's supposed to this winter.
Auggie
(31,167 posts)3. I've heard it starts in November
KamaAina
(78,249 posts)4. Sometimes mid- to late October as well
I distinctly remember it starting a few days after the Loma Prieta quake in '89, while many were still homeless.

(17,108 posts)5. This is the grace period to do roofing, gutters; any work that will prevent rain damage.
Stock up on any supplies you might need. Do it now, before it starts raining, and everyone's scrambling.
