Flooding on U.S Highway 101 in Gilroy CA on Jan. 9, 2023
NWS Bay Area
Highway 101 near Gilroy is closed this afternoon because of flooding that's turned the roadway into "a moving river." Caltrans advises 101 is closed from 2 miles south of Gilroy at the junction of state Route 25 to 10th Street in Gilroy. The National Weather Service's Bay Area office posted video of the highway, showing water rushing down the freeway like a river.

Officials are asking drivers to avoid the area. According to CHP logs, people have been trying to circumvent the closures and get onto the highway anyway; even 6 inches of water is enough to sweep a vehicle into floodwaters, so motorists should turn around immediately if they encounter flooded routes.
