helicopter. The USGS gauge at Santa Ana River Below Prado Dam shows that
gage height has increased from 6 to 9 feet since the rain began, with a
temporary drop (I guess when they stopped releasing water from the dam?)
and that streamflow has increased from 500 cubic feet per second in late
December to 11,000 cubic feet per second this morning.

"CORONA, Calif. Authorities are evacuating 500 homes and 330 mobile homes
this morning because of a possible leak in the Prado Dam east of Los
Angeles. The neighborhood is near the city of Corona and north of the 91
freeway. Corona police Sergeant Jerry Rodriguez says a series of
rainstorms caused water level to rise, to the point where the dam is
releasing 10-thousand cubic feet of water per second. He says the
evacuation is a "precautionary measure."
