Fear not, fellow San Diegans! While the weatherman may not have predicted a monsoon, unearthing yesterday's rainfall totals is easier than finding a decent parking spot at Pacific Beach. Here are a few trusty sources:
- The National Weather Service: These government gurus keep tabs on all things weather-related, including precipitation. Head over to their website and with a few clicks, you'll be knee-deep in rain data (hopefully not literally).

Frequently Asked Questions: Because We Know You're Curious
