No, it isn’t actually a tsunami but Old Arcata Road is once again experiencing flooding. (See here for map.) The road isn’t actually closed but Humboldt County Public Works has posted flooded signs and issued a press release letting folks know they are traveling at their own risk.

Additionally, county workers have cleared the slide on Shively Road but…it could go out again so plan accordingly. It’s being monitored and we’ll do our best to keep you updated.

What are you going to have them do? Re-route Jacoby Creek?

When you build a road, or anything else, in the floodplain, this is the result. Add climate change/sea level rise and OMG
