Floodwaters sweep across seaside town of Capitola
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 01. 2023
- Raging seas damaged two historic piers, rock and mudslides closed down highways, and deep snow piled up at ski resorts in the latest in a series of atmospheric rivers - long plumes of moisture stretching far over the Pacific - to reach the drought-stricken state.

Back in the early 80's, I was the cook at the Pelican Cafe. At 0:37 you can see the alley that runs between Zelda's and what used to be the Pelican, (I don't know what it is now). It's been many years now and I am retired and a very long way from Calif, but despite the storm damage, I enjoyed seeing familiar scenes of the village. Watching this reminds me very much of the Flood of 1982. At the time I was living on the corner of Porter and West Walnut in Soquel, across the street from Soquel Elementary so I saw that flood up close.
I remember the Pelican and the two for one, I was eating there at the time and water was splashing up the windows...Water all the way up to Dukes Deli, I think it was Portola st??? AND Mugs Away the last business going up Soquel road when leaving town. The pier was closed for a time after that storm for repairs, and it was 40 years ago at this time. I was at the time caretaking for Humphrey up Soquel rd near the "Y" where the last chance gas station was. Fun times.
@@williaml.baptiste3597 Hi Bill, I probably made your breakfast.
@@maj.d.sasterhikes9884: On the weekends, yes you did. Great memories. And at the head of the road was the upstairs coffee house, nice observation.
I remember the storm of 1982 in Bay area
@@williaml.baptiste3597 Mr. Toots, if I recall, and downstairs was Margaritaville.
Zelda's we will be waiting for your comeback! Stay safe. Santa Cruz county resident.
We in georgia went from 6° to 70° in two days. Its weird weather
Climate change for ya😅
Well, it’s only 3 seasons in 2 days. Lol
@@TitusMH maybe that eyeball on our dollar bill is doing it? Or were under a spell. Moonday saturnday sunday. We know very little of whats going on 🤣
Tribulation began on Jan 1st. Worldwide

Flood in 1982 much worse. About 2 feet of the beach at Capitola just dissapeared. There were huge redwood trees on the beach. Soquel was a real mess when the bridge there had a huge backlog of debris and the Sopuel Creek spilled out around it and flooded the whole town. The creek was normally about 5 feet wide. That night it was at least 15 feet high. Redwoods careened down the canyon. Huge mud slides that took out the sides of mountains. Over 20 inches of rain in one day!
Maybe the sailboat under Capitola beach will re-emerge with this storm.
Why should I care 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
@@MIKEYBOY638 It don't matter none if you do or you don't.
@@maj.d.sasterhikes9884 good because I could care less
@@MIKEYBOY638 Thanx! I was staying up at night worrying about that.
My getaway spot I travel frm the bayarea just to stay at the venetian and hit the warf restaurants such a beautiful place to stay at small cozy and layback.hope it's ready by this summer.ill definitely book to get back buisneses and to support
Same here, I get the same beautiful place everytime too.. I pray everyone is safe
No videos on:
Waves sweep through historic Point Cabrillo lighthouse near Mendocino. The ground the lighthouse stands on is 49 feet above sea level.

After the 1989 earthquake, when Hwy 1 was still closed, we had to drive to work through parts of Watsonville which were in a flood zone. At that time there was no other way. Since that time either the city and/or county allowed a large number of homes to be built in that same flood zone we used to drive through where there were no homes. It should be a surprise to nobody that same area is flooded again.
I’ve always wanted to live on that part of the creek where it hits the ocean, so beautiful and peaceful. I hope everyone recovers.
I adore Capitola. I lived there for a while and went to that beach restaurant often. This is the cost of doing business... on the beach. The owner did not seem too worried.
DAMN THOR NIL HOW MUCH DID YOU MAEK TO LIVE THERE
@@eviljesus6111 Not a lot less than 300k for both of us.
@@thornil2231 where Do you guys leave now?
We love Capitola. Worth the trek from the Sac area though.
@@eviljesus6111 I moved to the village in 1980,until the 89' earthquake,at that time,a blue collar construction worker like myself, could afford a comfortable little place to live.
Not any more.
I recall some damage at Zelda’s in our 2017 crazy storm. I’m on the river in the Santa Cruz Mtns. Sand bags saved me that season. Have at my door for this season. Be safe y’all
Are you on the San Lorenzo River? In the winter of 1965, we lived between Hwy 9 and the river, in a neighborhood called Gold Gulch. We could not see the River from our back porch or yard; had to walk up over a dirt dike that had been built years before to try and protect the properties there. To get to the River, which rarely was higher than our shins when we went in to cool off in the summertime, we had to walk across the small dike, and then walk down a ladder’s steps that went down around 25+ feet to the small “beach” on the River. We could easily wade across the river over to a small, sandy beach on the other side where there was a tall, straight up cliff, up above which was Henry Cowell State Park, and I still love to think of the sound of that narrow gauge railroads whistle we’d hear throughout the day. One rainy winter night I looked out our back window into what I expected to be nothing but pitch black. Instead, I saw the dim reflection of the moon! I ran to the back porch and saw tree branches and lawn chairs and all sort of other stuff quickly floating by…on the top of the river’s water! The river had risen so that it went from the top of our yard’s idle across to the top of the “cliff across the river! That had to be something close to 25+ feet! There was a rock at the end of River Rd., which was just two doors down from our house, that had a line painted on it, and everyone was keeping a very close eye on it, because if the water reached that line by a certain time, it meant the river water would back up River Rd. onto Hwy. 9, and then drop back down and flood all of Gold Gulch! It had happened many times in the past. Fortunately, we were “saved” by about 2”! For a 15 year old, it was both scary and exciting! How is the River holding with these storms? Stay safe!
You guys missed the video of the Santa Cruz boardwalk getting slammed by the waves too! Someone posted a video of the boardwalk getting hit by the large waves all the way up to the rides!
My precious capitola
Why don't you use those freeway dividers is concrete ones to keep the water from coming in it'll keep the damage down to a low and may not keep the mud out or the sand regardless but that would work on a long highway area double stack them if you have to but I'll keep the water out and probably put some sandbags on the side of it as well just a thought just to keep your city out of danger
So you think you know better than the 100s of engineers that have been studying and working on these areas for decades. LOL. They do the best they can, balancing costs while maintaining the feeling of a cozy village that attracts tourists and their money. Sure, build up a 10 foot concrete wall and surround the whole village - then who's going to want to go there? The businesses are well aware of these situations and have prepared as best they can. This happens every 10 years or so - it's just the cost of doing business.

So sad. May you all take cover and god bless you all..
This was bad, but anyone that was here in January, 1982 and 83, this is not as bad as that, when @55 people were killed by floods and downed trees in Santa Cruz, Watsonville, Boulder Creek, and Corralitos. That was bad, very, very bad. The Weather Channel has never mentioned it, but it was THE storm of the century.
I was there at the time, and remember it well. The pier was damaged at the time also.
I was in central Baja surfing then. Epic.
Really absurd to have the gigantic white FOX logo take up more space than the actual video. Disrespectful to the people whose businesses have been damaged in the storm
it's not doing that on my device
@@watchgoose that’s excellent!
@@dianethulin1700 All I see is a small “fox 2” logo, as every news has their respective watermarks. Not sure what you are referring to…
How about CBS?
Same thing I am seeing on most of the other news outlets. Guess you just don't like FOX.
See, the idea is to put up the boards (plywood) BEFORE storm hits.
They did, but it wasn't enough to stop a roaring section of the wharf from crashing through their wall.
Beautiful waves! Never seen that before
🙏🏽 Sending aloha. Stay safe.
The fact that this was just 10 minutes away from me is terrifying
thank the Lord Seascape has cliffs
O adorable Face which was rendered sad at the sight of Jerusalem, and shed tears on that ungrateful city, have mercy.
Mother Nature has her rewards. Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain. Maybe, the city can save every drop of rain.
Capitola Strong. Laid back, but resilient AF. Looks like they're doing a great job cleaning up already.
The Ocean,, she claims what's hers.
Zelda's and Ideal are owned by the same people. I wish them a speedy recovery

Over the past 6 mths, from PEI and Newfoundland, to Daytona and Fort Myers and now the Santa Cruz area of California, North Americans are seeing what is happening to those who live and work right on the Pacific and Atlantic coastlines. Maybe these are normal once in a 100 yr events OR maybe they are the result of a sea level rise of just a few inches and the new normal. Time will tell.
OMG! I lived there last time Capitola got slammed in the 80’s!
Quite honestly the whole beach front area needs a facelift ... make it nicer modern both inside and outside!!
Are you offering the money to do that? Are you willing to spend more at the businesses when they raise their prices to cover the cost of rebuilding? If not, then STFU and let people with real lives and families do whatever they need to do to get back to business as soon as possible.
The old school, original look is what makes those places nice to go to
'
aww beautifully natural rainy / stormy / windy weather...
bad idea design beach nearby homes / houses cliffs
Pretty stormy very dangerous.
It’s so surprising that they kept schools open
The ocean is powerful. I’ll stay inland
Lady I’ve been here longer then two decades ant nothin new🤣 just been a min
this happened back in 97, not as bad but this is nothing new, that area was built too close to the water.
Rich people building big fine homes near water, imagine that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Check out Pow Ponder on weather to stay ahead of all the storms and remember Drive To Arrive.
Wish I could escape to the safe space town of Chillingbourne.

Crraaaaazzy woooooo Crraaaaazzy
I can see nothing has changed much there in fifty years. All those buildings were old when I lived there at 15. Not the first time they have seen a little water. When it drys out, they sweep the sand out and they are back in business.
Wait till they remove the dams on the upper Klamath Rv…& one of these storms comes through…
Don’t want a home on the coast. Don’t want a home in the valley where water can deposit to rise. Don’t want a home directly beneath hills where lack of vegetation one day may cause landslides? A home far enough from the coast, high on a plateau not directly beneath mountains or hills……….this home will be safe from waves, from landslides, and flooding waters
You could move to Kansas but then a tornado would probably hit your place
Angry Ocean 🌊 does
That means that Nature
Hates? 🤔
Giggity.
Just wait......sea level rise is just getting going. See ya, Zelda's.
Sorry, A Storm combined with a full Moon or High Tide was the issue..not sea level rise.

Hope these guys have insurance.
how can you get insurance in a location like that?
I would say that the future for any restaurant in Capitola on the beach better be more like a platform boat BARGE placed on 4 lifting pierss that can be lifted the 5 feet for future storms. Not really that impossible. 3 units brought in and dragged up 50 x 20 locked together 4+ feet high. or welded steel perimeter around the whole buildng and pumps to keep leaks low. Make the restaurant storm proof reinforced on Surf Side. Make it a sealed box to 8' but in place, their buildings are maybe only 60x50 and the damage is more than that the cost of doing it right. If the string of property owners of the 7 units wish to just fix them; its a msitake. It will just happen again. I'd never insure them. If they want to retain the iconic space fro the next 40 years- they have to really invest. Thanks Zelda and others for acting as seawall, sorry for your natural loss. Summer will be upon us soon. If you build on the beach you cannot complain about nature wrecking what was foolishly placed. It is what it is.

Yes the damage from the 80's storms may have more. But this storm the biggest effecting all of Northern California and i'm here in New Zealand with a 4 days in a wind and rain storm hunger down on east coast. Japan same only 10' foot of snow.

I know I said what I had to say to you guys but let you let you know I work for OSHA now unless you know US government people we know more what you don't know the city might do something but when it comes to dangerous works and stuff to help people and save them we do our job a lot better than you and maybe the government but you know what if you think you're better than me prove it but don't insult me I was just giving you a little bit of tips how to prevent the water from coming in but you're smarter than me then fine as it is I'm a senior officer and if you keep it up you're going to find out how hard it is when you think you know it all that's why we work as a team we make anything up to the point to make it safe but you don't value life like we do
Nooooo no more taco Tuesday
Rip the wharf in half look at all the old wood on the shore this wharf was so rotten it's about time it fell down there's no strength out there in the weather it's just junk standing around everywhere, talk about the news station making a mountain out of a molehill
Mmmm 🤔
Mother Nature, creating jobs for humans. Gotta look on the bright side.
Reall karma
Capitola is the worst designed beach community. no parking and grid locked in summer.
Welcome to rising sea levels. California is sinking and rising sea levels aren't making it better. Won't be surprised if this happens every couple years until ppl get the hint and move more inland lol
Geology much?
Needs to be a tsunami next time
No don't 👎 Iam sorry some people lost their home. ATMOSPHERE STORM. YOU ROUT UP HARRP, for this damage, they should pay for property damaged and lives lots.
Those businesses can’t wait to collect insurance compensation
Looks like an earthquake arrived😮
Whoopee do it's not about business that waste resources or have to be closed - the essential points are the essential resources that need to saved for humanity's survival we're way past the point of losing money woes.

It never ceases to surprise me that people will buy property where there is a history of floods. Blaming global warning is a fools game if you live at/near sea level. Insurance companies need to charge more for insurance in these locations.
don't worry about the insurance companies... worry about property laws that force the state to allow rebuilding.
What makes you think they don't?
@@thornil2231 Very true. Government flood insurance pays to rebuild the homes in the exact area. No elevated foundations or anything.
@@davidanderson8469 look at what happened in Louisiana. Now there is worse... The building code has wind resistance provisions, but because they needed to rebuild and did not have the money they did not enforce the building code.

@thornil2231 Leviticus 18:21 Do not offer your Offspring up to Molech. Throughout the history of man in every country, they have offered up human sacrifices to false gods. California leads the way to murdering millions of babies in the womb, which are human sacrifices and then promotes it to the rest of the country. They deserve every bit of Destruction that they get from God on their land hopefully California will just float away. It's called judgment, you reap what you sow.
