Sheriff's officials say water was starting to recede by about 4:30 p.m. and a shelter had been set up at Mayer High School if needed, but was closed after the evacuation order was lifted.
Authorities say much of the affected spots were in the area of the burn scar left from a wildfire last year that forced an evacuation in Mayer.
