Well, that sure was a much-needed rain event for SoCal! Most places saw a solid soaking rain of half an inch to an inch of rain (or its liquid equivalent as snow in higher mountains). Debris flows did occur near Malibu/Topanga, but nothing terrible. Good news! [1/3] #CAwx #CAfire

Conditions will dry out/warm up considerably as this low departs. It appears SoCal will stay dry again for at least 9-10 days, with modest chance of more showers around Feb 6 but equal chance of another long dry period. Better odds of rain in NorCal, though. [2/3] #CAwx #CAfire

The amount of precip was enough to climb ahead of former driest start to season on record in some (but not all) parts of SoCal. But overall, this remains an exceptionally dry winter; without more rain, fire risk could reemerge in 10-14 days if SA winds return. [3/3] #CAwx #CAfire
