The watershed has not “recovered”. Look at the debris flow photos of 1969 from the 1964 Coyote Fire as an example of what can happen. Having said that, the County is now using formulas of inches per hour (or minute) to judge when a flow might happen. They are predicting the threshold won’t be reached with tonight’s storm. We all hope they are right. Some concerned people in Montecito have “self evacuated”. We would too, if we had little kids.
