About these readings

Recent totals combine NOAA MRMS radar analysis, where available, with Open-Meteo weather estimates. Readings cover completed analysis hours and can lag the current time. Small, localized storms may differ from a backyard gauge.

Rainfall in Los Angeles, California 90012

These readings estimate rain near this ZIP’s reference point, not an average across the entire ZIP. Use device location or search above for a more specific area. Nearby streets can receive different amounts during localized storms.

Today starts at midnight in the America/Los_Angeles time zone. The 24-hour and 7-day totals are rolling windows through the displayed analysis time. Historical dates use local calendar days; the YTD graph compares the same completed dates with the 1991–2020 ERA5 average.

Local rainfall context for Los Angeles, California 90012

Downtown Los Angeles usually receives most of its rain during the cool season, when Pacific storms and occasional atmospheric rivers cross Southern California. Long dry stretches are normal in summer. Terrain strongly shapes local totals, so foothill communities can receive substantially more rain than the downtown ZIP reference point during the same system.

A single intense winter storm can contribute a large share of a month’s total. Check the daily table to see whether a rolling accumulation came from one storm or several smaller periods. Burn scars, canyons, and low-lying roads can become hazardous even when a citywide estimate seems modest, so use National Weather Service Los Angeles/Oxnard alerts for safety decisions.
