We can't be far behind on those restrictions.  I haven't had more then an inch of rain in the last 6 weeks combined.  I picked a great spring to plant some landscaping.

Yeah it is usually fairly dry there this time of year but not usually that bad.  I lived in Huntington Beach, CA for a while and I know they have been getting rain quite often there so far this year.  But water restrictions in LA is nothing new they usually have them every year.
