What’s coming

One of the strongest
El Niños since 1950.

One of the strongest
El Niños since 1950.

NOAA now gives a greater than 83% chance of a strong-to-very strong El Niño through winter, and an 83% chance that October through December brings a historic event, stronger than any El Niño since records began in 1950. For Southern California, that tilts the odds toward a wetter season, a stronger Pacific storm track, and storm after storm with little time to dry out between them.

5 signs your roof won’t survive the rain

Spot any one of these from the ground? It’s worth a closer look before the weather turns.

Spot any one of these from the ground? It’s worth a closer look before the weather turns.

1

Cracked or slipped tiles

Curling, cracked, or out-of-place tiles and shingles leave gaps for water to slip underneath.

2

Granules in the gutters

Sandy grit collecting at downspouts means your shingles are wearing thin and shedding their protection.

3

Stains in the attic

Water stains — or daylight — showing through the attic mean moisture is already finding its way in.

4

Cracked flashing

The metal around vents, skylights, and chimneys is where most leaks start when it dries out and splits.

5

Sagging gutters

Clogged or pulling-away gutters push water back up under the roof’s edge instead of away from the house.

Spot one?
Don’t wait for two.

Common questions

Storm prep, answered

Storm prep, answered

Forecasters think so. NOAA gives this winter a strong chance of a "very strong" El Niño — among the largest since record-keeping began in 1950 — which tilts Southern California toward a wetter, stormier season with more atmospheric rivers. No forecast is a guarantee, but a strong El Niño is exactly the kind of winter you want a sound roof going into.
