Comment on Muddy cleanup underway in Daly City

Muddy cleanup underway in Daly City Residents along a quiet Daly City street woke up to an alien world Tuesday after a nearby water main broke and spewed 45,000 gallons of water down a sandy hill, caking the streets in a sea of silty brown mud. Cars parked along the crest of Lausanne Avenue sat in several feet of mud as residents and city workers shoveled the gunk into bigger piles for front loaders to scoop up and plop into waiting dump trucks. The suburban neighborhood looked as though Paul Bunyan had spilled his morning coffee all over the street, dregs included. The flood began just before 4:30 a.m.
