Just 3 miles north of Rat Creek at MM 33 this is happening. First shot is yesterday before Cal Trans came through. The others are today.

This is Cambria, which is a mess. Windsor Rd is flooded, the bridge is flooded, Burton, Ardath, Lodge Hill, many areas flooded or roads flooded. Below is Main St. And that looks like the Main St. Grill across the street. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

6 am — I breathed a deep sign of relief when the wind stopped suddenly at 9:30 pm last night. Allowed a solid 7 hours of sleep, thankfully.
Still gathering data, but there is a hard closure on the 101 NB at Camphora Gloria due to flooding. There are houses being flooded at the Carmel River lagoon, Flood Warnings issued until 10 pm tonight for burn areas and other parts of the county,. And Chalk Peak is sitting at 8,23” for this last 24 hours.
Here are some photos of Highway 1 taken by Cal Trans yesterday. What a gooey mess.
More information throughout the day as I get it. Stay safe everyone.
Big Sur Station has received 7.2 inches of rain since 4 p.m. yesterday and 11.65″ since Tuesday afternoon.
Thank you so much for keeping us informed!
S.F. Bay Area, Santa Cruz, San Mateo, Chualar, Salinas are all covered by youtube video reports.
For Big Sur… well, you’ve got to come here! (Good work, Kate.)
What a mess.
That photo that you thought was the Cambria library is Main Street Grill, same side of Main Street as the Shell Station. The hill behind Shell flooded Kent Street behind Shell, and drained onto Main Street between Shell and the Grill.
We drove down there at 9am today and those puddles in your photo were gone. The pump system across from Shell is doing it’s job, but the drainage ditch between Main St and Hwy 1 is at the top of its banks, with some spill over edging into parking lots behind the buildings between the south side of Main and Hwy 1.
The Windsor Street bridge was technically still passable but the water raging below was within 4-6 feet of the bottom. A worker is sitting in a large truck that’s parked at the north entrance to the bridge, blocking all traffic while monitoring the flow of debris passing under the bridge.
When we drove south across the bridge yesterday to Shamel Park, the south bound lane of Windsor was flooded, forcing us to drive in the other lane.
