The North Bay is bracing for another rough weekend as the rain is expected to hit the area hard.
GUERNEVILLE -- A huge concern, with the ground still soaked from rain earlier this week.This year's storms have already flooded a neighborhood in Guerneville. It's a mix of mobile homes and cottages and residents have been stacking up the sand bags to try to keep the water away.'Nobody said every time it rains hard this creek rises and you're in for a rude awakening,' Charlene Haines said.
This Sycamore Cottage community already experienced devastating flooding in January. Fife Creek overflowed, spilling water to the doorstep of the mobile homes and into the cottages. When it starts raining, Haines will be keeping a close eye on the area that backs up to the creek.'This whole area fills up and it's shining out here,' Haines said.The Monte Rio Fire Department is preparing the best it can for any potential flooding and problems caused by downed trees.
