Orange County’s rainy season is underway! Typically lasting from October through April, the season can bring heavy rainfall and flooding. With a strong El Niño predicted this year, now is the time to prepare for potentially severe weather. Take these simple steps to protect your home, our community, and local waterways before the rain arrives:
1. Install a rain barrel or cistern.
2. Pick up dog waste with a bag, tying it shut, and placing it in a closed bin.
3. Place all trash in a closed bin.
4. Minimize the use of pesticides outdoors, following instructions on the
label, and only applying them on non-windy days and more than 48 hours
before a rainstorm.
