Biggest Storm in Nearly Two Months Hits San Francisco Bay Area

At ABC News 7 San Francisco, "SORELY NEEDED RAIN ROLLS THROUGH BAY AREA."

We also had a little bit of rain in Southern California. My son called out to me in the evening last night, "Dad, it's raining!"

California Drought: Wealthy Burgs Use Far More Water Per Capita Than Less-Wealthy Communities

The politics of drought is now hitting the once-Golden State, brought to you by the single-party hegemony of the left-coast Democrat Party. The freakin' hypocrites.

At the Los Angeles Times, "California's wealthy lagging in water conservation."

More here, "Brown orders California's first mandatory water restrictions: 'It's a different world'," and "Gov. Brown defends sparing agriculture in water restrictions."

It's a mucked up.

It's very nice to have sustained rainfall.

At LAT, "California rain: 'Six straight hours of rain,' and drought continues."

Another day of this and the weather's going to take a big dent out of that drought.

At the Los Angeles Times, "'HI, DO YOU HAVE WATER?' IN A CENTRAL CALIF. TOWN, ANSWER IS OFTEN NO."
