California is in for another day of heavy rains, prompting evacuations in some communities in the southern part of the state, including Camarillo Springs, 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles, where water and debris rushed from hillsides yesterday afternoon.

Yesterday saw record amounts of rain in some parts of Southern California but whether the rains are enough to help alleviate the drought remains to be seen.

Rick Dickert, a meteorologist for Fox 11 in Los Angeles, joins Here & Now’s Jeremy Hobson with details on the storm and how communities are handling the rains.
