In the North Bay, the atmospheric river storm created lakes where roads were supposed to be.
"We had a driver that drove around flooded road closure signs and attempted to make it through waters that were flooding over the roadway," Karen Hancock with the Sonoma County Fire District said."Unfortunately, this person's vehicle did not make it through, but fortunately we were able to walk them out."
Closer to Guerneville, people near Mill Street had to contend with high water, too, even after the rain had stopped falling.
