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.
