Reminders of recent rainstorms remain around town

Recent rains have filled Salt Creek and have created run-off and vernal pools throughout Menifee. Tana Simmons sent us this shot of a pool near Berea Road and Normandy Road. If you look closely, you can see egrets in the field in the background.

Tana is the first person eligible for the March Photo of the Month award in our "Menifee in Pictures" contest.

"Menifee in Pictures" is a regular feature on Menifee 24/7. Readers are invited to contribute photos for publication.
