It's called the Rainy Season. I experienced the SoCal climate for 5 years of undergraduate school in Pasadena. The Rainy Season started whenever the Interhouse Party was held (usually in mid-November). Lasts until March, when a mini-summer starts, followed by a mini-rainy (or cloudy) season called the June Gloom (frequently starts in May). Then follows the Dry Season, which is followed by the Fire Season (when the Santa Anas blow in), which ends when the Rainy Season starts again.

So Cal's rainy season would be a drought most anywhere else. I acknowledge that we get rain, but hardly a seasonal deluge every year. I have more than 5 years of living here to base it on, 47 to be exact but who's counting.
