Is Your Home Ready for El Niño? A Little Preparation Goes a Long Way

Rain is usually welcome here in Southern California. Our gardens need it, our hills turn green, and there’s something especially nice about a rainy day when you can stay home.

With El Niño comes more attention to the possibility of a wet winter. While it doesn’t guarantee how much rain we’ll get, it’s a good reason to take care of a few things around the house before the storms arrive. These are worthwhile habits every fall, whatever the forecast.
