MONTEREY COUNTY — Caltrans has received confirmation from National Weather Service (NOAA) data that a significant storm is in the forecast to begin in approximately the next 24-hours for the areas of Mud Creek (PM 8.9) and Paul’s Slide (PM 21.6) on State Route 1 in the Big Sur area.
This advisory is to inform the public to be prepared for closure of the roadway tentatively scheduled for mid-day Monday, Jan. 14 due to a significant storm. Stand-by for additional information within the next 24 hours and a final notice will be sent when the roadway closes.

When the wind pushes the misty Winter rain clouds against the Santa Lucia's, and the temperatures plummet, to be there watching this is akin to stepping back in time- to what it was forever.
It is you and nature, the beating of the rain, the swirling fogs passing, no unwanted visitors. Just a dramatic natural event, as it ever was and will be.
The immaculate peace between storms is exquisite.
