We're starting this weekend still recovering from one of the most dramatic weather events our city has experienced in years. New Year's Day brought record-breaking rainfall that caught many of us off guard. Over two inches of rain fell in just a few hours, making it the wettest January first on record for San Diego. That's equivalent to what we normally see in an entire month of January, all coming down in a matter of hours early Thursday morning.
The impact was immediate and intense. The San Diego River overflowed, flooding Mission Valley and Downtown with several feet of water in some areas. We saw multiple dramatic rescues throughout the day. Lifeguards pulled an adult and child from a trapped vehicle near Fashion Valley mall. Later, rescuers found a man who became trapped under a bridge as the river rose rapidly. A couple had to be rescued from fast-moving water after the man made it to shore but his wife continued downstream. Deputies, Cal Fire, and local fire agencies worked around the clock pulling people to safety. The sheriff's office reminds us that just six inches of fast-moving water is enough to put your life at risk. Their message is simple: turn around, don't drown.
Beyond the dramatic rescues, the flooding disrupted our entire region. The trolley service went down for a few hours Thursday morning. Interstate five and Interstate eight-oh-five saw traffic crawl as vehicles became stranded. San Diego International Airport experienced flight delays and cancellations as the rainstorm affected operations. Businesses in Mission Valley are cleaning up today, dealing with water damage and debris. One local flower shop owner told us this flooding brought back terrifying memories of the January twenty twenty-four floods that hit our community hard.
The good news is the immediate danger has passed. We're expecting light to moderate showers through the middle of next week according to the National Weather Service, but nothing like what we saw Thursday. General clearing is expected by Wednesday, with temperatures staying in the sixties. A beach hazards statement does remain in effect through Sunday morning with some minor tidal overflow expected.
Looking ahead at today, we'll see partly cloudy skies with highs around sixty-eight degrees. Light winds are expected, so it's a much calmer day compared to what we've just experienced. If you're planning outdoor activities, today's looking pretty good, but keep an eye on the forecast as more rain moves in this weekend.
City cleanup efforts are underway, with crews inspecting and clearing storm drains and waterways to prevent further flooding. Authorities are also conducting damage assessments throughout the county.
