The forecast had originally called for less than a half of an inch of rain, but the storm had more than that in mind.

Here’s how much rain has fallen so far in and around the Coachella Valley:

With the rain has come the usual issues such as slower traffic and, as always, Cathedral Canyon is closed at the wash, according to the Desert Sun.

And while the desert is seeing rain, the mountains are finally seeing snow!
