San Jose is one of several locations where flood risks have heightened considerably as new storms barrel into Northern California, swelling rivers.
The National Weather Service warned of moderate flooding that could come to San Jose starting Monday morning. At the same time, the Guadalupe River at the Almaden Expressway was expected to exceed minor flooding levels at 9.5 feet and, by the afternoon hit a moderate flooding level of 11.5 feet.Residents of Southern California, reeling from heavy rain and wind earlier this week, should expect a fresh storm system to buffet the region as early as Sunday night.
At 11.5 feet, waters would spill north along Lelong Street, flood the viaduct at Highway 87 and Alma Avenue, and risks flooding properties in San Jose’s Northern Cross neighborhood. “Threat to life is likely during these storms,” the weather service said in a bulletin. “Soils remain saturated, which means a high risk of flooding and shallow mud slides. Expect rapid rises in creeks and streams as well as rises in mainstem rivers. Periods of strong winds with gusts of 40 to 60 mph could lead to downed trees/power outages.”More than 300,000 customers lost power in Northern California as the latest powerful winter storm pushed through, elevating flooding danger.
