Emergency crews in Alaska are concerned more landslides could come after a large landslide killed one person and forced dozens to evacuate their homes in the tourist town of Ketchikan. The slope is still unstable, and authorities say state and local geologists are assessing the potential for further slides.
Four homes were critically damaged, but homes nearby the original disaster are still being assessed.
The National Weather Service said Ketchikan received more than 2.5 inches of rain in about 36 hours over the weekend, but rainfall totals at higher elevations ranged from 5 to 9 inches.
