Five on the do ot. Lets check in with steve. Still roads closed. I saw some higher peaks than that. Really . Yeah. Lack hats happening at 101. Obviously higher peaks than that. For the gauges. I saw one off east williams road that went up to 30 feet. One of the ones that is ed eastbound val. Announcer . That loud the peak at 14. 4. Flood estimate stage is ten that. Temperatures it went way up. Higher levels. That goes through early saturday. Another a lot of people are saying dont let your dogs walk through that. There is a lot of contaminated water. We get a break today. Winter storm warning there is still 40s and a few 30s. If it feels cold interest is. We will get partly cloudy later. The next couple days look quiet. 50s on the highs. All right. 101mckee. Cochron. 101 in Morgan Hill Steve has reopened. Thats the good news. North . People are getting through. However in san jose 101 is still closed between mckee and interstate 880. Here you see a chp officer stopping to see why our photographer is tight will near the water. I know how this goes. I have been a reporter before. Are you supposed to be here . The traffic is not getting through because of this big pile of water here this big puddle of water. Highway 101 is closed in both directions between 880 and mckee road. Major freeway. I dont have to tell you that. That means more photograph sick going it be on 280 and 85 this morning as this is not going to work. We dont know when this is going to be reopened. They are going to be more people on the other roads. Please give yourself plenty of time if you are a Silicon Valley commuter. Lets look at the other things we check out the here. The tracy super commute. You can see traffic will be busy over the pass getting in to livermore. This falls in to the normal category. Im not hearing of any pot hole problems. Anything major along the pass. Lets go it interstate 880 admonishment and southbound. The traffic is moving well in both directions as you drive past. The bay bridge toll p lza still light. Lets go back to the desk. As sal has been saying we have a big mess on highway 101 this morning. On the pope with me right now chp officer ross lee. Thank you for being here with us. Tell us about that flooding on highway 101. How bad is it and just tell us the situation. Good morning. How are you . Good. As you did state 101 is flooded in the san jose area. Basically and essentially in the areas between the 280, 180 split and 880. So southbound 101 is being diverted. Traffic to 880 northbound traffic is being diverted to the 280, 680 split. We dont have an estimated time of opening for when that will be he opened. Thats really going to depend on the floodwaters receding. So at this point we are hoping people get the information and are able to plan an alternate route if they need to get through that area and heading in to san jose or out of san jose. Is there a plan to send in pumps to get water out or let it recede on its own . I have not spoken directly to cal trans yet to see what the next step plan is. I know we do have our officers who are on scene now at the Office Currently who are working on making those plans and making sure we have the best the approach to be able to do it as quickly as possible and also depends on if there is anymore water that will come from the dams. Itll possibly create more flooding. We have a map on the screen showing you this particular area thats affected. I know you got to go but before you go we know this is a big deal. How much traffic goes through this area normally . Especially during the morning the northbound traffic we are talking about. You know thousand and thousand of vehicles. I wouldnt be able to give you a specific number. The exact count of vehicles going through but itll have a major impact as best we as i stated during the drive hours. Which are essentially from now until you know somewhere past 9 00 a. M. So, any those vehicles and then in that direction. There is alternate routes of going 680, 280, up 85. They would be best served to make that plan now and be able to plan accordingly for their morning drive. Thank you for the heads up on all of this officer ross lee of the chp. Thank you for joining us. We will check back with you. Thank you. Hundreds of people in san jose are in relief shelters this morning because of the flood evacuation orders. Officers had to go door to door at the south bay Mobile Home Park ordering people to pack up what they could quickly and leave. Rushing water from the coyote creek went through a back wall and flooded the complex. We talked to one man who lived at the Mobile Home Park for 20 years and this was only the second time its been flooded in much worse than the first time. I feel a bit emotional. I feel that rain is kind of defeating us. Shuttle buses took people to a relief shelter where they spent the night. The Mobile Home Park has 550 homes. Not everybody is at Emergency Center though. Some are staying with family and friends. About half the people evacuated stayed at shelters in local high schools. Dinner was more like a picnic at james lick high school. Cots were set up so people could try to get sleep. Most say they werent able to bring much at all with them. San jose mayor visited the Evacuation Center and said that the city is trying to make sure people dont have to worry about their homes. We have Police Departments deploys officers and reserve officers out out in those neighborhoods to make sure there is no looting or additional damage. The community is also stepping into help the people at the Evacuation Centers. One church group dropped off a van load of food and clothing and one family dropped off some toys for the kids who had to leave everything they owned behind. Most of the flooding problems in the area are because of the water being released from Anderson Reservoir and into the creek. Santa clara valley water managers told the mercury news that released started in january 9th from an outlet at the bottom of the dam. On saturday they started sending water over the spillway which hadnt happened in more than ten years. They say they were trying to make room for the coming rains and hoping to preserve as much Drinking Water as possible as well. San jose fire crews have a lot to do before many of those people will be allowed to go back home. Firefighters say that the floodwaters from coyote creek are contaminated and they urge people to stay away saying several factors making that water very dangerous. It could be sewag appreciation the pipes that are now under water. It could be gasoline and motor oil and transmission fluid from car that are under water. Battery acid in cars and other chemicals from those homes is now in the water. Firefighters say that anyone who comes in direct contact with the water should check with medical people about decontamination and a tetnus shot. We have power outage this is morning and its affecting thousands of people. There are problems in all bay area count yips but the biggest problems in santa clara and santa cruz counties.

Check on their property but only after getting a permit from firefighters. The levee breached in a rural area and many people are praising farmers for finding out about the problem before it grew even bigger. They are all right there. If it wasnt for them to spot the levee they have levee patrols going on all throughout the night in case of another leak or boil or something happens. County Officials Say that to temporarily fix the breach they had to take material from a more stable part of the levee. Now they are focusing on repairing that stronger section.
