Elsie-May has been playing a year and said she loved sliding in the mud.

Now, the bookshop is drenched in mud and they are taking stock of the damage.

"There are mud and rocks everywhere. Some flooding has subsided but some remains."

The storm dumped inches of rain on the San Bernardino County mountains and foothills and unleashed a torrent of mud, rocks and trees, particularly in burn scars near Oak Glen and Forest Falls.

Some areas, however, saw dramatic rainfall over a short period of time, causing minor flooding in Twentynine Palms and dangerous mud and debris flows in the San Bernardino County mountains, trapping several motorists.
