Drying Out From L.A.'s Monsoons



I told you yesterday how I dread the rain and the toll it takes on our house. Sure enough, the foundation moved enough today that I currently can't open Blogger Toddler's closet door. (Hopefully, once things dry out, we'll be able to get back in.) Another bedroom door won't completely shut. And a stream of rain managed to get into the garage (above).

Thankfully, the worst appears to be over... and it ultimately didn't cause much damage in L.A. From this morning's L.A. Times:
About 1 to 3 inches of rain fell in most areas of Los Angeles County, with as much as 6 to 7 inches of rain in the mountains and foothills. In Orange County, canyon areas received as much as 3 inches of rain.

Forecasters said the first wave of the storm would bring scattered showers through this evening, when the next wave is expected to hit the region. The heaviest rains, however, were expected to the southeast in San Diego County.

Actually, there haven't been any showers today, at least here in East-of-the-L.A.-River-ville.
