Back on Channel 9...reporter from La Canada Flinridge talking about evacuations...maybe earlier...video just showed water runoff...and statement that catch basins seemed to be handling stuff OK.

Is that close to Eagle Rock?

If you come directly south on the two freeway you’ll hit the extreme east side of Eagle Rock. Eagle Rock is more like South East of the area of concern, at about eight miles.

If you look at the two and 134 freeways, Eagle rock is located in the north west quadrant of that corner.

The two dumps out on Foothill. From there you would go left to the Briggs area and go up toward the mountains as far as you could go to find the problem areas. I’m sure the problems exist pretty much all along the perimeter of where the homes buttress nature up there, from the edge of La Crescenta over through La Canada.

Of course the real problem is where the small canyons empty out. As long as the catch basins are doing okay, homes should be too. Of course if you have a real downpour, like we’ve been having, you don’t have to have a recognized bad area for something to crop up real quick.

BTW, take it with a grain of salt where those reporters say they are. I’ve seen them standing in La Crescenta calling it La Canada and vise versa.
