MONTEREY COUNTY FLOODS: The effort to fix the levee along the Pajaro River is making progress, but Highway 1 remains closed.
Work crews using heavy machinery have been moving rocks into the large gap where water flooded into the Monterey County agricultural community, forcing residents of Pajaro to flee as their homes and businesses were inundated.The county released a drone video showing the repair work, which goes on around the clock.
Gov. Newsom will be in Monterey County to view damage and speak about how the state will contribute to the recovery. Meanwhile, Highway 1 is still shut between Watsonville in Santa Cruz County and Castroville in Monterey County because flooding threatens the Pajaro River Bridge. The levee break has eroded the embankment around the bridge, according to the California Highway Patrol.All the news you need to know, every day
