Weather

UPDATE: In 30 years of keeping records at my location in Topanga only the 2005-2006 water year received more rain. Average rain for this date is 7.34 inches and last year at this time we only had a paltry 0.21 inches.

Below is the annual rainfall on my weather station for the last 30 years:

I’ve been collecting meteorological data for over 30 years, first with a Davis Weather Monitor II, next a Davis Vantage Pro 2 and as of 2025 I’ve switched to an Ambient WS-2902 at both the Fernwood location and now also at Cassie’s casita in Arroyo Seco, New Mexico.

Below is last season’s rainfall for the 2024-2025 water year:
