The Great San Francisco Rain-quisition: Did Noah Stock Up on Wine?
Ah, San Francisco rain. It's as iconic as sourdough bread and cable cars that mysteriously never seem to need a brake (seriously, how do they do that?). But lately, the rain gods have been a bit...enthusiastic. So, the burning question on everyone's mind is:
How Much Rain Did San Francisco Actually Get?
QuickTip: Let each idea sink in before moving on.
| How Many Inches Of Rain Did San Francisco Get |
Brace Yourselves, It Wasn't a Drizzle
Let's just say your basement apartment is probably not the best place to be chilling with a cup of tea right now. We're talking multiple inches of rain, folks. Some reports say we're looking at between 1 and 3 inches along the coast, with some areas possibly exceeding that. That's enough to turn Lombard Street into a real-life Mario Kart water slide (don't try this at home, folks).
Tip: Stop when confused — clarity comes with patience.

Reminder: Short breaks can improve focus.

Tip: Reading in chunks improves focus.
