(Paul Duginski / Los Angeles Times)The latest rainfall figures show Northern California lagging. Northern California’s rain season usually starts earlier than Southern California’s, but this year Northern California got a later start and Southern California got an earlier start, said Bill Patzert, former climatologist with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Recent storms hit the whole state, and that put some Southern California reporting stations ahead of normal for the period beginning Oct. 1. (Paul Duginski / Los Angeles Times)After almost eight dry months, the rain is welcome, but is it any indication of how this rain season will turn out in the Southland? Most of the rain that falls in Southern California is in January, February and March.
