The Great San Diego Rain Debacle: Did it Rain Cats, Dogs, or Just Our Weekend Plans?

How Many Inches Of Rain Did San Diego Get This Weekend |
The Case of the Missing Raindrops (or Were They There?)
Let's cut to the chase, folks. The rain gods did sprinkle a little something-something on San Diego this weekend, but it wasn't exactly a Noah's Ark situation. We're talking more like a light drizzle that would make your car sigh in disappointment than anything that would require an inflatable raft.
But here's the funny part: depending on who you ask, you might get a different answer. Some folks swear they saw whales migrating down the street, while others wouldn't know a raindrop if it smacked them in the face. The truth, as always, probably lies somewhere in between.
QuickTip: Skim first, then reread for depth.
The Great Rain Gauge Roundup: Who Can You Trust?
So, how much rain did we ACTUALLY get? Well, that depends on where you were standing (or how dramatic you are). Officially, the weather gurus say we saw trace amounts to MAYBE a tenth of an inch. But hey, don't let science rain on your parade (pun intended). If you woke up to a puddle on your windowsill, you can tell your friends you braved a torrential downpour. We won't judge (much).
Here's the real kicker: Some weather stations might show slightly different readings. Don't get caught in a heated debate about rainfall millimeters – that's a recipe for a social media meltdown.
QuickTip: Stop to think as you go.

While this weekend wasn't a washout, there's always the next one. And hey, at least you can break out that cute umbrella you never get to use.
