7 am – In the last 24 hours, Three Peaks in southern Big Sur got over 5 and 1/2 “, and Rocky Butte in Northern SLO Co (southern Santa Lucia’s back behind Hearst Castle) got over 7”. And down there in that general area, is Mud Creek. Hard to know what kind of mess that is, and it isn’t over, yet. The atmospheric river is predicted to continue “hosing” this area throughout the day.

The good news is that Santa Barbara has not been hit as hard as SLO CO. Let’s hope that keeps up today. Be safe, out there.
