Highway 101 has reopened on Saturday night, according to Santa Barbara CHP.
The storm produced runoff from Romero and San Ysidro Creek, forcing officials to close Highway 101 and backing up traffic for hours. Caltrans reopened the southbound at 4 p.m.
US 101 is open in both directions in Santa Barbara. @CaltransD5 did an amazing job clearing the roadway as usual! @KSBY pic.twitter.com/awh6CKPupS
