<p>The Sonoma Sheriff’s Office said in a statement that Guerneville is “officially an island” because all roads leading to it are covered by water.</p>
<p>Residents of the town with 4,500 people and two dozen other communities along the Russian River were ordered to evacuate.</p>

<p>The National Weather Service says the Russian River in Sonoma County topped 32 feet and it that it could crest at more than 46 feet by Wednesday night.</p>
<p>The river has repeatedly flooded following heavy rains, but this marks the highest level that its waters have risen in more than two decades.</p>

<p>Several other Northern California creeks and rivers are expected to crest before the storm eases out of the region.</p>
<p>Heavy snow has prompted the closure of several mountain roads in the Sierra Nevada.</p>
