Mick, do you have a source for that regional risk summary?

And the date of that information, and what "Typical status" is supposed to mean.
I don't buy its characterizations if that table is supposed to mean current (2025-2026) status.

For instance, LA County Season Total is pretty close to Season Average across the county but that spreadsheet puts it Below Normal.
NOAAs drought info has essentially all of California as having no drought.
California Water Watch shows statewide rain as 156% of normal (59% of full year), with almost no areas less than normal.
