    Rain drenched Southern California as a powerful storm slid down the state, snarling traffic as vehicles spun out, raising the threat of mudslides in areas scarred by wildfires. Nearly 7 inches of rain fell before dawn in one area of Santa Barbara County.http://apne.ws/jxX7PhN

        Man, California can't get a break. They NEED rain and lots of it. Just not all at once... The entire west is in severe drought conditions. But getting so much all at once, most of it will run off before the ground can soak it up.

        The problem is, in order to keep this water, it has to soak into the ground. Thst is best accomplished with a lawn or some other grassy ground cover whose root system can act to keep the soil porous and permeable. So we do need lawns or something with roots.

        It's not good to let this precious free water from the sky turn into runoff for the storm drain.
