PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the 
dangers of flooding.

Heavy rain has significantly increasing the risk of landslides, 
especially in areas where slides have occurred in the past. Slides 
can destroy single homes and other structures and large sections of 
roads. If you are in the warned area, you should not travel, except 
to move away from flash flood or landslide dangers. If you are in 
the vicinity of a stream near the heavy rainfall, especially on a 
mountainside, or at the base of a mountain or in a cove, move 
immediately to a safer location.
