This has a feeling of a 128-495 gradient deal. Not that the coast gets skunked (might get a good one in Feb) but I could see Dec-Jan be more wet then white on the coast vs what may occur just inland. Kinda like 02-03 only milder.
But but but the drought monitor says no worries. POS product. Meanwhile everything around here is as low as can be when it just has this area as abnormally dry. Earlier this summer under “severe” drought it was full as can be.
