RAINS FINALLY CAME
November and December are usually rainy in Southern
California, but this year's fall and early winter
storms turned east before they reached us. And so it
was, that after two and a half months of dry days (71
days in all), rain finally came to Santa Monica on
Monday. See Mirror Weather, page 17, for what's to
come.
