Monterey County officials on Sunday said the cresting Salinas River will probably inundate roadways between the Monterey Peninsula and the rest of Monterey County, including the city of Salinas and Highway 68.
Officials said in a statement the "Salinas River can crest at Spreckels/Highway 68 before daylight Monday morning, March 13th, and is expected to result in significant flooding of nearby agricultural land and may affect structures and critical infrastructure.
" Officials said the Salinas River's behavior is unpredictable and coupled with the recent storms and the Pajaro River flooding, ask people to be prepared and plan for changing circumstances. If flooding occurs, the county said the roads most likely impacted include River, Reservation and Blanco roads and nearby secondary roads. Officials said residents should seek shelter at a county evacuation shelter or with family or friends.
