     Hard hit this week for the "SOCALians" on dealing with the rain for anyone in the realestate biz...  With rain and traffic everthing was delayed a bit with a lot of things that had to be done to all of the properties.  But at least these back to back rains may bust OC's drought.

"Federal climatologists might announce this week that Orange County is no longer in a drought following three back-to-back storms, including one that dropped more than a half-inch of rain in many areas early today. (Chart below.)"

     And more to add to the flavor of rain life in the OC.  There is a costal flooding warning tonight so I'm not going to any beach side properties this weekend...

     "The National Weather Service issued today a warning of high surf and possible minor coastal flooding in low-laying areas on Sunday evening.  The large west swell - expected to bring surf in the 10-to 15-foot range all along the coast - will stick around through Monday, according to the NWS.  The surf will build rapidly through late Sunday afternoon. Some standout spots could see waves more than 20 feet in height. Boaters should be prepared to stay out or return to port prior to Sunday afternoon because entering or leaving the harbors might be dangerous, the warning reads."

Surfline.com says:

"Large W swell arrives Sunday the 24th through Monday the 25th
