We had 1.75" of rain this past week at this location but much of that came from a small storm that covered only a limited area.  Generally this area is in a D1 drought.  Some towns have declared a water emergency though due to critically low reservoir levels.  The rain has caused all the crabgrass and weeds to green up quite a bit so plants in generally are OK for now.  The usual wildlife is around, lots of goldfinches at the feeder!  I haven't seen any of the new crop of young animals but that isn't unusual.  I haven't heard of any unusual wildfire activity in this area.
