1st storm arrives: Here’s how much rain has fallen on Southern California

The first of two winter storms expected to arrive in Southern California this week brought some rain overnight but mostly north of Los Angeles County.

The relatively low rain totals to this point should be good news for the Los Angeles area burn zones. There were concerns that heavy rainfall could cause mud and debris flows where thousands of homes were destroyed by the Palisades and Eaton fires.

Here’s a look at some rain totals around the Southland as of 5 a.m.:

Ventura County

• Camarillo 0.28”
• Oxnard 0.41”
• Leo Carrillo 0.27”
• Lake Piru 0.32”
• Simi Valley 0.19”
• Thousand Oaks 0.24”

Los Angeles County

• Downtown L.A. 0.09”
• Beverly Hills 0.20”
• Culver City 0.14”
• Agoura 0.22”
• Chatsworth 0.22”
• Canoga Park 0.20”
• Sepulveda Canyon 0.33”
• Newhall 0.19”
• L.A. City College 0.11”
• Eagle Rock 0.09”
• Claremont 0.06”
• Santa Anita Dam 0.12”
• Mt. Baldy 0.05”
• Lancaster 0.00”

Almost no measurable rain had fallen in Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties as of 5 a.m. Some light amounts were reported in the mountain areas such as Running Springs, which received 0.17″.

Scattered showers are expected throughout the day Wednesday with a second, possibly stronger, storm slated to arrive Thursday night into Friday.
