Storm breaches California river’s levee, hundreds evacuate -
First responders and the California National Guard rescued more than 50 people overnight from the unincorporated Monterey Bay community of Pajaro along California’s Central Coast. One video showed a member of the Guard helping a driver out of a car trapped by floodwaters up to their waists.
Crews began working to fix the levee around daybreak Saturday as residents slept in evacuation centers. Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom has declared emergencies in 34 counties in recent weeks, and the Biden administration approved a presidential disaster declaration for some on Friday morning, a move that will bring more federal assistance.
The snowpack at high elevations is so massive it was expected to be able to absorb the rain, but snow below 4,000 feet could start to melt, potentially contributing to flooding, forecasters said.
