By Reginald Stanley. Posted November 21, 2019, 10:39 PM.An upper low over the northern Gulf of California brought rain to the region this week, following a warm, dry first half of November. Across much of Southern California, it marked the first significant rains of the 2019-20 rainy season. Precipitation totals were much larger to the south, particularly in San Diego County where totals were often in excess of one to two inches. Areas to the north generally fared much drier, mostly below one inch. In the WeatherCurrents network, Anza was the wettest location with a total of 1.30 inches through early Thursday morning. This was followed by Fallbrook with a total of 1.14 inches, as well as Beaumont (Cherry Valley) with 0.91 inches. Hemet, De Luz, Temecula and some surrounding areas also received totals exceeding 3/4 inches, including WeatherCurrents contributors in East Highland with 0.81 inches (courtesy of Peter Michas) and Temecula Valley's Wine Country with 0.79 inches (courtesy of Jim Sappington). Rainfall was particularly heavy at one point Wednesday afternoon in parts of Riverside and San Diego counties. To the north, Simi Valley recorded the lowest storm total in the WeatherCurrents network Thursday with only 0.15 inches. Riverside (Orangecrest) was next with a mere 0.21 inches, followed by both Wildomar and Perris tying for 0.35 inches each. WeatherCurrents' station in Riverside (Presidential Park) is believed to be experiencing a rain gauge clog, rendering that station's storm total invalid for the time being until it is corrected. WeatherCurrents' station in Moreno Valley is experiencing an outage until further notice. Drier, warmer weather is expected through the weekend as high pressure establishes itself over the Great Basin, before a trough brings the possibility of cooler, unsettled weather early next week. Here are the rain totals for the WeatherCurrents network and associates:
