Monday's torrential rainstorm left a mess in its wake.
The mud and debris flows damaged homes and cars and washed out roads in several mountain communities on Monday. Annette Arreola reports for Today in LA on Tuesday, Sept. 13, 2022.
Monday's torrential rainstorm left a mess in its wake. In Forest Falls, a debris flow brought huge rocks and boulders down on top of houses. Cars were also buried in the mud, and the situation became so dangerous that residents had to scramble out of their homes and leave the area. "It's part of life," said resident Eugene Gerber."It's part of living in the mountain. If you want to live in paradise, there's always some kind of consequence. For us, it's floods, fires [and] heavy snow."
The San Bernardino County Fire Department is helping to clear the roadways in the region now that the rains have slowed down, though more storms could drift over the mountains Tuesday afternoon. Luckily, this time, there are no flash flood warnings in place.
