While the official totals won't be confirmed until rainfall measurements are taken Friday afternoon, the National Weather Service underscored the storm's intensity.

Downtown Santa Rosa broke a century-plus record for having the most amount of rain within a 72-hour period — 12,7 inches. The previous record was 9.72 inches. “We broke it by a healthy margin,” Flynn said. “We’ve never seen that much of rain over three days since we started recording.”
