A tremendous amount of rain followed into the street gutters along West Olive Avenue in Burbank during this storm. If only some of that precious water could be saved and used to quench the drought stricken city and Southland.

Temperatures today not expected to reach into the low 60s. Warmer temps and mostly sunny skies predicted for tomorrow and Sunday, but another storm is rolling our way early next week.
