Costa Mesa Flooding

17th Street & Pomona Ave is famous for flooding. For over 50 years both property owners and vehicle owners alike have had to pay the price. Buildings have been torn down, and rebuilt. Parked cars get covered in water and people trying to drive across the intersection are literally floating down the street.

It's 2024. Would you please address the East side of Costa Mesa and the forecast for home dwellers who live near Victoria Place and Pacific. Thank you

WHAT?

[@CB-jz2dn]

My question is: IF WE EVER have a flood, would the Bluff area be at risk? I just want to know for preparedness. I wanted to know if you have any history on whether THE BLUFFS were ever impacted by flooding. During rain, the walking trails are always flooded. Thank you.

I don't know any Bluffs in Costa Mesa or Newport Beach that have been affected by flooding. We have houses falling off the bluff on Galaxy Road. I heard that there are a couple houses on Pacific Avenue where the mountain is eroding in a way that they're going to have problems in the next couple years.
I'm not sure what Bluffs you're referring to but I don't know of any problems in regards to flooding .
Historically it is the 17th, 18th St. area that floods the most. Center St., Pomona Avenue and some other low line areas.
I have a video I think I posted a couple years ago where Mesa Verde was flooded really bad.

Thank you so much! The Park, located on the corner of Victoria Place, Pacific Avehue, (right before you reach Brookhurst if you're heading North on Victoria - which turns into Hamilton), is the area I'm most interested in. This is where the Riverbed is and the homes in the Bluff side are located. Our weather has been pretty interesting over the past few years......all over the US.

Yes I know that area well, I lived at 2031 Pacific Ave., I went to Estante high school right there and my family owned the property on the corner of Wilson and Pacific
One day those houses on that Bluff I think will have a severe problem to deal with but for now to my knowledge I think you guys are in the clear.
I would personally be more in fear of fire than flood, even if the riverbed overflowed like it almost did in 1987 I think both of the house on the bluff will be OK
