Most of the downtown area west of State Street is severely flooded and it is especially bad on Castillo. I was driving there 45 minutes ago, and many of the roads (Bath, Haley, etc.) are completely impassible. Avoid driving.
Hahaha, I lived on Micheltorena & Salsipuedes during the storm in the early 90's. It was a converted house and I had the basement room with a fireplace; roaring fire that night, evacuated in the morning. Lost most of my photos and record collection.
Don't drive during flood conditions. How hard is that? Be a lookie-lo later. I hate to think how many native Southern Californians would be hurt or killed if they had to deal with a blizzard or tornado. Being born here seems to wipe out some self-protective, responsible-for-oneself gene.
