The wider storm

Officials were forced to release water from Lake Arrowhead after heavy rains filled the lake to capacity. The release sent water rushing into an already full Mojave River. Flooding along the Mojave River destroyed 2 homes, a mobile home, 3 outbuildings, farm equipment, livestock, and caused significant erosion. More than 3,000 feet of river frontage at historic Gold Gulch Ranch was washed away.
