Above-average rainfall is going to be more impactive throughout San Diego County, including along the coast. Nearly 54,600 San Diego County residents, about 1.75 percent of the total, live in 100-year flood zones, mostly known flood plains that could be subject to flooding during El Niño-fueled rainstorms over the next several months, according to a report released by the National University System Institute for Policy Research.
