California’s 11th atmospheric river left the storm-soaked state with a bang, bringing both flooded roadways, landslides and toppled trees to the southern part of the state as well as drought-busting rainfall that meant the end of water restrictions for nearly 7 million people
“If anyone has any doubt about Mother Nature and her fury, if anyone has any doubt about what this is all about in terms of what's happening to the climate and the changes that we are experiencing, come to California,” the governor said.
Three clifftop apartment buildings were evacuated Wednesday morning when earth slid away from their backyards in coastal San Clemente, the Orange County Fire Authority said. Residents were also cleared out of a nearby building as the severity of the slide was studied. The governor issued emergency declarations for three more counties on Tuesday, raising the total to 43 of the state’s 58 counties.
The first phase of repairs on the 400-foot levee breach was completed Tuesday afternoon, and crews were working to raise the section to full height, county officials said.
