Tomorrow morning. Also a Flood Warning until 8 30 a. M. For central sonoma county. Pretty obvious as to why. We have a powerful storm that is bringing in moisture all the way back towards the hawaiian islands. This is going to be moving in tomorrow, and its not in a hurry to leave. It will leave behind some damage. Its a three on our storm impact scale. Highest impact, Santa Cruz Mountains. Flooding is likely. Take a look at some of the biggest concerns. Very high likelihood of river and creek flooding, especially in the north bay and the Santa Cruz Mountains. Also mudslides and hydroplaning. Were expecting the river and creek flooding across the bay area. Potential is there for trees to topple and Power Outages to occur. A number of watches and warnings have been posted. Ill have all of those plus the hour by hour look at when the worst part of the storm is going to hit. Dan . Thanks very much. A van stuck in a sinkhole. Tonight, this blue van remains wedged in what remains of a Santa Cruz CountyMountain Road that suddenly collapsed. The driver never saw it. Lets shower where this happened. It is unincorporated Santa Cruz County on skyland road near stetson road. Reporter dan, ama, we understand the driver is okay, but what a heartstopping moment that must have been to suddenly realize the road in front of you is gone. The scene is almost surreal. A bright blue van wedged end to end in a sinkhole. The situation on skyland road too precarious for a tow truck to do its job, so the van is stuck. I saw the screech marks, the skid marks. They saw it but just couldnt stop. I might have gone into that ditch too, you know. It was foggy, hard to see. Its flat. You know, how would you know . Reporter it could have easily been dana scobee in that hole. She had driven the same stretch about an hour before. She took these photos after the sun came up. Neighbors believe the driver is okay. Their main concern now is getting around. Its going to be a while before we get to use this road to go to town. So hopefully the only other road out of here stays open. Reporter all anyone can do is hope. Most santa cruz Mountain Roads are at risk because of all the rain. Highway 17 is certainly not immune. Northbound lanes are still closed because of this second mudslide near vinehill road. Traffic is forced to inch by one lane in each direction. But no matter how bad it gets, locals say they love living here. Its a little bit of heaven on earth despite what you see there. Reporter as you can see behind us, crews are working through the night on highway 17 to clear that mudslide out of the northbound lanes. But caltrans tells us tonight the soonest things could get back to normal would be monday. In the Santa Cruz Mountains, katie marzullo. Talk about the right place at the right time. Tonight two Good Samaritans are credited with saving a driver from this. An upside down car in a creek filled with rain water. Abc7 News Reporter katie utehs explains how they stepped into action. We heard the skidding but i could hear the impact against these rocks down here. Reporter cell phone video shows the crash scene dan rich discovered near his ranch yesterday afternoon. The car flipped upside down. The young man was trapped, couldnt get out, and the car filled up with water. Reporter neighbor clayton wedeman jumped into the creek with dan along Highland Road near Collier Canyon road. Underwater we could hear him hitting the window but he couldnt break it. Reporter dan sprang into action again, grabbing a pick ax from his truck and used it to smash the rear side window. Clayton went underwater, dove underwater and went through the car because we didnt know if there was anyone else. Reporter the only person inside, a 20yearold driver who suffered minor injuries. Chp said he drove too fast for he got very lucky. When he overturned and he landed in the creek, it can end up a lot worse than what happened. Reporter dan and clayton pulled the man out before chp and firefighters arrived. That took a lot of you know what to get that done. Reporter courage, perhaps heroics. Heroes, i mean anybody would have jumped down in the water, i think, to help somebody out obviously. Reporter a modest rescuer with miraculous timing. Happening now, westbound 580 in livermore has fully reopened after a giant pothole formed early this morning and caused traffic problems the entire day. Crews pulled away from the scene just a few minutes ago. The pothole was eight feet long. Cal tran crews spent the entire day repairing it and thankfully the road will be back to normal for the morning commute. A los gatos family found themselves stuck in the mud with no phone service and pleaded for help on social media. Unbelievable. This is so unbelievable.

Today, an expert looked around on soil engineering. What happened, a matter of ground so saturated on such a steep slope that it began sliding. Often the critical moment arrives with no symptoms.
