We don't get a lot of rain in Tehachapi and the surrounding areas, but when we do get a bigger storm, the ground can take on quite a bit of water.
If you have a septic system, it's a good time to know where your tank and drain field are located and pay attention to how the area around them normally looks.
After a significant rain, unusual pooling water, persistent odors, or changes in how your drains are working are worth paying attention to.
Knowing what's normal for your property makes it easier to notice when something changes.
