Ruben Gomez pauses as he digs away some of the mud and flood debris that engulfed his parents' home in the previous rainstorm as more rain falls, Thursday, Feb. 1, in San Diego. Gomez has spent all of his time since the Jan. 22 storm shuttling between caring for his parents who were rescued by boat and later hospitalized that day, and trying to salvage what he can from the flooded home. Now, with more rain coming, Gomez worries the floodwaters may rise again in his parents' neighborhood.
