The 2024-2025 California rainfall season (July 1 to June 30) ends with an overall theme of dry south and wetter north. La NIña did not persist long enough to be a "historic" event, the rainfall pattern broadly resembled a "typical" La Niña. See:

Midnight Milky Way at Pigeon Point. Last night I took advantage of the clear skies, and a small window of time after 11:45 when the Milky Way had risen but the glow of the rising moon was still mostly over the eastern horizon. (20 sec, 28mm, f/2.8, iso 1000)
