Areas of the North Bay are bracing for some of the heaviest rain this weekend, including parts of Marin County that see some of the most significant flood dangers.
In really big events, like 11 months ago, when 12 inches fell in a short period of time some businesses did flood, and the whole downtown took on water in 2006 and in the 1980’s.
“But certainly, as the winter moves on, and as the grounds get saturated, and there’s more water in the creek, the opportunities for flooding become higher and higher,” said Brian Colbert of the San Anselmo Town Council. Townley said the narrowing gap actually causes the back up in San Anselmo and flooding and at least two county engineering reports have deemed it unsafe during earthquakes. He’s been keeping an eye on cracks forming under the bridge for some time.
