The storm has really turned the state's highway network upside down. There is almost no way of getting between Northern and Southern California by road yesterday without encountering some major storm cause delay or complete road closure. People in these areas that have been under mandatory evacuation orders are simply doing what people have learned to do in these situations. Most people find some kind of workaround, which may mean crashing with family or friends,. Sometimes even leaving for some other part of the state or country until they can go back home.
