Planada has had some rain but nothing to the extreme that we had to evacuate. Sylvia Moreno, 67, decided to evacuate sometime during the storm, but her brother stayed behind, going days without power and heat. "Most of Planada evacuated during the storms, but Espinosa estimated that about 20% of the residents stayed behind. "They're gone," he said.Like many other Planada residents, Gene Benavidez said he was scared for his property and that someone would break in. They wanted to build another house next door where they could grow old, so they took out a loan.
