As strong as this storm was we managed to stay dry on the valley floor. As you can see from this 24 hour rain total radar estimate, the Coachella Valley was in-between the rotation of the low (just offshore of Los Angeles) and a line of tropical moisture pulled up from the south (10-40 miles east of Palm Springs - PSP).
