Heavy rains on Thursday evening damaged a drainage structure on Placid Street just south of Windmill Lane in the southern valley. Water rushing through a wash in the area also damaged the roadway, prompting the closure of Placid. “The water came up to the middle of my front yard,” said Ron Falahi, who lives on the edge of the wash.
