The rain is needed

California has a dry season, no rain, from mid-April to mid-October. Then it has a wet season, from mid-October to mid-April. It's been that way for eons.
There have been wetter and drier years.

I remember once as a kid. I was home with strep throat. It rained ENDLESSLY. I knew that the Bible spoke about 40 days and 40 nights of rain. WE HAD MORE. I got nervous because of the Bible. But, as I grew up I realized that weather pattern was normal for the West Coast.

Since our planet has been around for 4.6 BILLION YEARS we can't really get mmore that the feel for it in just these few hundred years of weather pattern...for SURE.

We need FEWER people; THAT'S what we need. We have 38 million Californians...and those don't include the scads of illegals. TOO MANY.

I grew up here when there were only 10 million folks here. We didn't need so much water then.

It’s called a Mediterranean climate. Dry summers, hopefully wet winters

However, there can be a monsoon effect coming up out of Mexico this time of year, that can produce ‘tropical’ weather events.

Too bad no one studies geography any more.
