92 in the event of an emergency young's closest hospital would be sutter health in san carlos. it usually takes her 35 minutes to get there. what do you think now? i think now it could take as long as 3 hours 92 is the main thoroughfare for the county's bayside and co-side regions to access three of the main hospital systems. if a transport is needed you're probably looking at double or triple the amount of transport time you get the patient to emergency for ambulances the only clear route for people living in half moon bay south of the devil's like tunnel is highway 1 through pacifica, but retired firefighter paramedic peter green says commute times to the closest hospitals in daly city south san francisco and burling. could double he estimates getting to san mateo general kaiser redwood city and stanford and palo alto would be at least an hour by car. there's multiple patients or multiple transports needed in either have to rely on helicopters to help bring patients out or they're gonna for wait longer periods of time

for ground ambulances. the county says stanford life flight, which is routinely used along the coast is prepared to be deployed if necessary, assuming the weather cooperates the series of storms were expecting are you concerned about the availability of those resources if it's not safe for them to do so, they just they they're not available. they will not make themselves available as far as when the sinkhole will be fixed. i have not heard. no. i've not heard anything related to when the repair is supposed to be complete leaving young and her neighbors worried, especially when we don't have any information about when 92 will be open. this is really a dire situation in the coast for the items stephanie sierra abc 7 news. the south bay clean up and repairs continue after the region was hit with flooding and mass power outages now officials are preparing for the next round of storms and working to make sure the public is ready as well. abc 7 news reporter's x fuentes is live in san jose with a look as everyone braces for more impact zach. absolutely. i'm a santa clara county's

emergency operations center is at its highest activation level for this weekend. in other words. they are preparing for the worst and right now officials just want people to not underestimate the impacts of the upcoming storms and also not to underestimate the impacts left behind by the previous ones. though it took a brief break. the rain has returned and more storms with it. the last week saw the south bay take on brutal damage this pg&e transmission tower taken down by a fallen tree cut power to thousands at one point first responders were seen rescuing community members most at risk along santa clara county's main creeks, but while repairs are well underway on the tower and is outreach continues that encampments at waterways like the guadalupe river officials are ready for another round crews. as you're well aware. are working around the clock? the past few weeks to remove debris another blockages from those portions of creeks and streams throughout santa clara county an emergency order has been extended throughout the county to provide necessary

resources valley water chair. john varula says nearly 52,000 homes and businesses in santa clara county are within the fema special flood hazard area county officials say the circumstances are challenging, but they're ready for the worst this season. we've been coordinating all year through hot weather and cold weather. so we got plenty of practice throughout the last 12 months, but they say it's also up to community members to stay ready not just for themselves, but looking out for neighbors too law enforcement officers aren't walking around everywhere firefighters aren't walking around everywhere paramedics aren't walking around everywhere, but community members are walking around everywhere. so if the community is prepared to help each other then we're much more resilient and better prepared to face disasters as a community county shelters are going to be open throughout san jose and other parts of santa clara county. any evacuations are necessary but as officials. hope for the best they're fast to point out. the situation is dynamic. this is a unique situation.

i think it was back in july. perhaps august when noah had predicted that this rain season was not going to happen that we were going to be in another drought year. so we don't know when these atmospheric storms line up. they just you know, they hit us and they hit us hard. so again the these emergency officials may sound redundant, but it could be lifesaving. so sign up for local reverse 911 alerts wherever you may live here in santa clara county. it's scc alerts make an emergency plan with family and friends and have an emergency supply kit again things we hear all the time, but they could be life-saving right now live in san jose zach fuentes abc 7 news right zach. thank you in the east bay. livermore's lake del valle is so full of water the department of water resources started to flood release for the first time in five years. this is what it looks like when water leaves the reservoir at a rate of 3,000 cubic feet per second crews are trying to
