~ As the weekend approaches, residents of Juneau should be aware of the heavy rain expected to hit the area. This comes after a week of stormy and rainy weather, which has already caused concern for potential landslides.
According to the National Weather Service, sustained heavy precipitation can create ideal conditions for landslides. The ground becomes saturated with water, causing soil, rocks, and trees to become loose and potentially dangerous.
In light of this, residents living on or near slopes are being urged to stay alert and keep an eye on their surroundings. It is also advised to stay updated with the latest weather information from the National Weather Service.
To further prepare for potential emergencies, residents are encouraged to refer to CBJ's 2022 landslide maps for more information.
