NOTE: When most weather reporting sources cite weather in Los Angeles (without specifying where, exactly, in Los Angeles), these numbers are typically for the Downtown Los Angeles weather station (actually located on the USC campus).
It was reported to us that this station was vandalized in late July and is therefore not currently operational. The station is operated by the Los Angeles County Fire Department which is working to replace equipment and resume data-reporting as soon as possible.

* Although normals are established by the National Centers For Environmental Information, based upon averages for rainfall seasons 1991 through 2020 (updated May 4, 2021), this station's data only goes back to 1993. NCEI does not provide normals for this station. Consequently, the Almanac calculated unofficial normals for this station from the 23-year period of 1993-2020 (as close to NCEI's calculation period as possible), adjusting for unusual outlier amounts and missing data. Total season normal for this station is 16.26 inches.
** No rainfall data was received at all during this month. Last update provided was on July 25, 2023.
