Carmel Valley Homes Flooded By River Water After Nearby Levee Breaks

Ten homes in the Carmel Valley were partly flooded late Sunday after a nearby river swelled from heavy rain that pummeled Northern California, authorities said. The Carmel River breached “by several feet” and a levee in the area broke, sending water toward a cluster of 10 homes along the river bank, according to the Monterey County Office of Emergency Services. The extent of damage to the homes was not immediately known.
