Just a quick review of this season's rainy season, so far.
The entire desert Southwest is dry, with just a few exceptions. The Little Colorado River area of northern Arizona is particularly hard-hit.
Interestingly, even though this map doesn't show it, Sacramento is about normal for the season so far. There was a rain gauge failure in the Sacramento area around January 10th, when an usually-heavy rain hit the city, so this map doesn't capture that impact very well. The area of normality is pretty small and precarious - maybe just urban Sacramento, and no more.
It feels lonely being normal.
Western Montana and northern Idaho are seeing lots of precipitation though.
