Severe weather continues to plague the west coast, but in this case it wasn't nearly as severs as expected as half the amount of the expected rain actually fell.

A Pacific Northwest storm blew through Southern California early Friday without causing much damage or delivering the mudslides and severe flooding that many had feared.

Up to three inches of rain had been expected in Orange County canyons burned bare by wildfires earlier in the year. About 1,000 homes were ordered evacuated in the area as a precaution on Thursday, but only about half that amount fell overnight.
