 was the wettest year in recorded California history.Heaviest US
rainfall ever outside of Hawaii was January 4-5, 1982, Inverness,
California. Thirty-two measured inches of rain in 48 hours.<snip>

I lived in Capitola back then - the main road out of Santa Cruz towards 
Aptos/Watsonville had its bridge cut in half, cutting water/phone stuff; 
along with the downed power towers in the hills....what fun that was! I 
remember them talking about your area.
