Landslide
« on: November 23, 2008, 07:25:02 PM »
 There was a landslide here in Ketchikan Friday that damage one home and sent  mud, trees  down Hawkins Ave into a empty lot.  It also threaten a day care  but the kids got out ok and  no one wasn't injuried. City officals  say a badly installed drainage system was to blame. Heavy rains for the month contribute to the cause. Ground on the hillside is saturated. Can check our rainfall here at  http://akrainbird.com . Airport this morning was showing 52 mph gust and ifr condition  be a bumpy ride on approach with the burples coming off the mountains.
