Debris in West Hollywood valleys holds what little moisture arrives against the covering, which is where rot in most cases starts. This holds across Los Angeles County. West Hollywood gets its rain in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once. Low-slope sections in West Hollywood hold heat worst, which is why coatings and reflective membranes pay for themselves here.
