From CHP Monterey:

Highway 1 at Rocky Creek Bridge is closed in both directions, due to a wash out of the southbound lane and loss of integrity in the northbound lane.
We are working on a plan to get motorists evacuated from the area.

It has been an exciting night!

Here's a radar velocity loop showing the rotating t-storm with a possible waterspout in the Monterey Bay before coming ashore near Moss Landing at roughly 6:10 PM.

This was the first tornado warning issued by our office since March 2011.

This may seem cute but it’s not, this sea otter was very aggressive and the surfer actually abandoned his board and swam to shore. I believe this is the same otter as in my previous photos, though I understand there was a second otter on the board at first 1/2
