An unforgetable week of rain in Long Beach

This is at Willow Street off of the Terminal Island Freeway. Look closely, there is a big rig truck underwater.                                  Taken by Tracy Tucker from Long Beach

Here's a picture of the bus stop on Spring Street near Palo Verde Avenue.

Spring St flooding near Woodruff Avenue.


This one was taken near 7th Street and Cherry Avenue. There were mailboxes and giant boulders scattered in the streets! The water was up really high here, everyone was trying to drive very cautiously. You can even see how far up the water is to the parked cars! Long Beach had pretty much turned into a river that day.

I had rolled down the car window to take this one going east toward the Traffic Circle on Los Coyotes Diagonal. The water had flooded the entire street, and if a car went by too fast, the water would spray up OVER our car!

This photo was taken by Rosie Bauman from her front porch on the 6400 block of Nixon Street.

My favorite photo: My two children, Carter, 4, and Kira, 6, enjoying a break in the rain and cheering for a rainbow!                                                        Taken by Annie Ybarra

This is from the recent storm. The girls are all 13 years-old and are great friends! They are Bridget Starr, Kelsea Styron and Allie Goodwin.
