Video: Child Surveys California Floods

October 25, 2021
By WeatherBug
A powerful atmospheric river drenched Northern California on October 24, 2021, with the National Weather Service issuing flood warnings.

The downpour broke the one-day rainfall record for downtown San Francisco, while also making it the area’s second-wettest October on record. Several rainfall totals passed the one-foot mark.

The National Weather Service said heavy rain, high-elevation snow, and gusty winds were forecast for central and northern California, the Sierra Nevada, and the Great Basin on Monday.

This video, posted to Twitter by @joycezc, shows a child attempting to walk through the floodwater before shrieking and retreating. The post was captioned “OK maybe a little bit too much rain today.”
