Runoff from the torrential downpour fueled by an atmospheric river turned the normally tranquil water of Bates Creek into a raging torrent Friday morning, washing away Main Street in Soquel, trapping more than 100 residents in their homes.
With the soil already saturated by weeks of stormy weather, the rain quickly filled rivers, creeks and other smaller waterways.

A shelter in place alert was issued for residents of Cherryvale, Glen Haven, Prescott and other neighborhoods.
"It's unimaginable," said Ed, a local resident."I just could not believe, if you told me this was going to occur, I'd say never."
