..."Just how much rain did Southern California get?
The National Weather Service Los Angeles said at 3 a.m. local time that "virtually all rainfall daily records have been broken thus far."
Among them: A record rainfall of 2.48 inches was set in downtown Los Angeles, breaking the previous record of 0.03 set in 1906. Palmdale Airport saw 3.93 inches, smashing the old record of 0.05 set in 1934.
Los Angeles International Airport and Long Beach Airport both broke new records with 2.03 and 2.27 inches of rain, respectively.
They broke their old records of "trace" (greater than zero but too small to be measured), which were set in 1973 — the year after Albert Hammond released "It Never Rains in Southern California," as it so happens."...
