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.

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

An evacuation order was issued Tuesday evening for low-lying areas along the Russian River in Sonoma County as an atmospheric river coursed through the Bay Area. Issued by the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office around 5:45 p.

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