The episode as NWS HNX wrote it up.
An upper low pressure system moved onshore and into Central California during the morning hours. This lead to light rain to fall across most of the district. However, there were a few convective showers that lead to some localized heavy rainfall.
The national radar mosaic for the moment the first event began.
3 heavy rain. Local standard time, as filed.
Reports were received about some mud and rock on Highway 178, 2 miles east of Canebreak Fire Station. The mud and rock was due to heavy rainfall occurring.
California Highway Patrol reported water ponding on Highway 14. This resulted in the closure of both Randsburg and Garlock roads.
At 1612 PST, law enforcement notified the office that a large boulder was blocking the roadway and that there was localized flooding of water in Onyx. This was due to heavy rainfall earlier, though no evidence of what caused the boulder to fall into the roadway. The area is a canyon so the heavy rainfall may have caused it to fall.
