RAIN BRINGS OREGON MOUNTAIN TRAVEL WARNING

There is a warning  about travel through the Coast and Cascade ranges for the next few days.  Lots of rain has fallen and is predicted, so authorities warn of possible dangerous debris flows.  Watch out for landslides at the bottom of steep terrain, at the mouths of mountain streams, or along roads where adjacent hillsides have been excavated.  Officials also urge you to listen–to commercial or weather radio stations for warnings, and to listen for unusual sounds that could signal a debris flow, such as  trees cracking or boulders knocking.
