Multiple mudslides have shut down both directions of Highway 395 from Highway 208 (Holbrook Junction) to the Nevada/California state line near the Topaz Lodge, according to the Nevada Department of Transportation.
Trooper Matt McLaughlin with the Nevada Highway Patrol says all northbound traffic is stopped at the California state line and southbound traffic is being diverted on Highway 208 through Wellington.
A spokeswoman for Douglas County says the nearly 200 people inside the Topaz Lodge are sheltering in place after water and mud inundated the main floor.
