Good Tuesday morning, 

It was an interesting weekend, which lasted into Monday with tropical weather. 

Now it is back to normal. It was crazy for some locations with rain totals that were incredible from San Diego to Ventura. Just look at these numbers for any, and especially in August!

Now compare it to just west in Santa Barbara area. We received  1/3 of an inch. The big winner in SB county was Figueroa mountain with 2.10, and in contrast Santa Ynez barely got a trace. https://www.wrh.noaa.gov/lox/scripts/getlocal.php?prod=LAXRRMSBA

It was incredible to see the difference in the rain totals that was in the pathway, verses just outside. 

There were lots of pretty rainbows in the area. Thanks for all that sent photos. 

Now we will get back to work and what’s in the forecast moving forward. 

The overall pattern shifts to non eventful. Which means typical weather pattern for summer in California. Normal low clouds and fog along the coast and highs in the mid 70s to sunny and warming in the valleys with highs in the upper 80s. Just calm summer weather. Not too hot and not rainy for the rest of the week. 

Enjoy the back to normal, and have a great week
