Hundreds of people in a Northern California agricultural community were forced to flee their homes early Saturday after the Pajaro River's levee was breached by flooding from a new atmospheric river pummeling the state.
First responders and the California National Guard rescued more than 50 people overnight from the unincorporated Monterey Bay community of Pajaro along California's Central Coast. One video showed a member of the Guard helping a driver out of a car trapped by floodwaters up to their waists.
