We are getting word that northbound a lane may open soon but southbound is going to be closed for a longer stretch. Southbound is the noncommute direction but you know im sure a lot of people still use it for commuting. Northbound has really taken a beating. Our crew is there.

Trying to clear debris and mud from this creek and you can see how much water is rushing through this creek. Early this morning the creek over ran its banks and that sent flood water rushing in. We dont think there are any homes damaged. This is one of many problems. I want to show you new video of a mud slide. This is up on a hill. And as that rain came dumping down early this morning between midnight and 2 00 a. M. , it was really coming down and part of the hillside gave way. Mud and debris went rushing down into the backyard and the Swimming Pool of one home we saw. We were told three homes were impacted by a mud slide in that particular area.

And it went rushing across tiburon boulevard and flooded a salon and a nursery nearby. And again they are still trying to control the attainer that area. They have been doing sandbagging work in that area and the real concern is that high tide is coming in just a couple of hours at 8 00 this morning. That is when even more water could go rushing into the streets. All right thanks for the heads up. Alex savidge in marin county. Thank you. The cost of last weeks big storm just keeps going up.
