Piombo, co-owner of Aperture Media & Design in Napa Valley, says he launched the drone from CRU @ The Annex, a tasting room near downtown Napa, around noon and continued taking video until 4:30 p.m.

According to a tally by the National Weather Service, parts of Napa County saw more than 7 inches of rain in just 48 hours.
