SAN FRANCISCO -- Ongoing flooding issues from the incessant rainfall and damage to roadways across the region from recent storms are making travel around the Bay Area a challenge Sunday.

Though the rain on Sunday was not as widespread and heavy as the intense precipitation that fell Thursday afternoon into Friday morning, there were some isolated downpours that were contributing to flooding in parts of the East and South Bay.

On Sunday morning, Caltrans reported that a 21-mile stretch of Highway 1 was shut down in Watsonville from Salinas Road to Highway 129 due to flooding from the Pajaro River levee breach. There was no estimated time to reopen the highway.
