Parts of California are being hammered by winter weather. On Friday, evacuation warnings were slowly lifted for portions of Monterey County near San Jose.
A section of the Pacific Coast Highway running through Big Sur, where they’ve received nearly eight inches of rain, was washed away.
Check out this amazing drone video of #Hwy1 washout at Rat Creek about 15 miles south of #BigSur. Our crews are on site securing it, assessing damage & starting clean-up/ repairs.
