Lots of activity while we slept, Arroyo Seco lost its road (that actually happened before we went to bed) and those that stayed rather than heed the evacuation order will have to now shelter in place. San Ardo was put under mandatory evacuation after midnight, so technically today. Pajaro had more evacuation zoens added to the order as the levee broke around midnight. Deja vü of 1995. I had a rough night last night, so am still taking care of morning duties (dogs) and getting coffee. I’ll be back to post the specific notices and anything else I was sent along with a rain totals map for the last 24 hours.

The Monterey County Sheriff’s Office has issued an Evacuation Order for the Pajaro Community to go into effect immediately and until further notice. (LEVEE BROKE)
