we are not built for this kind of rainfall, that s my main concern. in one, day san diego got ten times more rain than what a typically sees all summer. across the region, roads begin to buckle. as hillary moved northwest into nevada, the destruction continued. this is a road turned into a raging river. i could not describe, but i had never seen anything like that. the amount of water we got last night, it is huge. as water from above was not, enough the ground in california
weather and the fact that some of these areas they re trying to access i mean, look at these images, randi, can you tell where the roads begin, roads end? you just can t. you see everything has just merged into one big heap, cars thrown on the sides, houses, some randomly standing and loonging relatively intact, and others just decimated. rescuers have to contend with trying to negotiate these elements and going door to door as well as dealing with the fact we keep getting these aftershocks which is really making things very, very difficult. we saw the number, something like 15,000, people have been rescued so far. which is actually great news, considering when you hear about a town of about 8,000 and 9,500 people are missing. absolutely. but we are also hearing that as they go door to door, when they can make progress and proceed in these really clustered areas, they re finding a lot of dead bodies. that is just the reality. this water hit so quickly and it was so large a swath
