Rushing water traveled 200 feet down Palm Avenue and flooded a bus depot with about 100 buses. The police statation next door appears to be uneffected, so it was a function of the path aiming into the bus depot.

I thought the article title was going to say a major water main break in West Hollywood holds up counting ballots in Governor’s primary race.

I think from video I have seen so far, the buses are going to be fine. Bus engines sit pretty high up. They may to do some cleaning, but the buses will drive just fine.
It is the cars that were in underground garages that are going to bear the brunt of this.
