The Rainfall data layer can help you understand the distribution of precipitation throughout the county.
Areas with high precipitation may require remedies to prevent flooding and damage to homes, businesses, and infrastructure. High precipitation is also an opportunity to collect stormwater for drinking water, irrigation, and other benefits.
When you add the Precipitation data layer to the map, you will see the following sublayers:
- Storm Event Volume
1. Storm Event Rainfall
Feature
This sublayer displays the volume of water from a single heavy rainfall event, specifically the 85th percentile of 24-hour storm events. This data is derived from L.A. County.
