These are the South Coast rain totals as of 1 pm this afternoon. Pay attention to Mining Ridge and Anderson Peak. Mining Ridge is behind Big Creek Reserve and Anderson Peak is just north of Esalen and above JPBurns

And just for grins, we have this to deal with.

7 am: This was South of Esalen. Also Ryne noted many disabled cars on the side of the road.

Good catch on the simultaneity of earthquake and slide! In Carmel Valley Village we are in a light rain, no wind. We must be in a rain shadow. Amazing photo, Ryne. Thank-you.
