The rainfall is predicted to push the Russian River up to nearly 33 feet and into the minor flood stage Wednesday morning in Guerneville.

The Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office on Tuesday evening issued an evacuation order for low lying areas along the Russian River, the office announced just before 6 p.m.

Locations impacted by the evacuation order include Mirabel Park Resort and Mirabel Trailer Park in Forestville; Johnsons Resort, Parkers Resort, Creekside Resort and Riverside Park in Guerneville; and Old Bohemian Highway in Monte Rio.

The rain-swollen Russian River reached flood stage in multiple places Wednesday morning in the wake of an atmospheric river-fueled storm that brought a deluge of rain and lashing winds to the Bay Area.

As of 7 a.m. Wednesday, the Russian River in Guerneville had risen above 36 feet, entering the moderate flood stage, where waters typically inundate the Mirabel RV Park & Campground in Forestville. Multiple businesses and homes in low-lying areas likely experienced flooding. It’s unclear if the river has peaked in Guerneville.

An atmospheric river brought additional rain, strong winds, and flooding to the Bay Area Tuesday, triggering evacuation orders for the area around the Russian River in Sonoma County.

The NWS says excessive rainfall is expected to cause flooding along the Russian River, affecting roadways and agricultural land.
