But another major threat in the days ahead will come from rain-soaked hillsides that threaten to slide onto Oregon roads. Even as rains let up, satu- rated, unstable soils remain, aggravating the potential for slides. On Wednesday, ODOT began assessments, includ- ing aerial observations, to study the extent and nature of the threat. The slides have been taking place in areas of the state accustomed to slides in heavy rain, including the Columbia River Gorge, riv- ers along the Coast Range and in the Cascades. Visit TripCheck.com for the latest road conditions and closures. The slide threat will be greatest on roads with steep hillsides. Here are some tips for drivers: • Be especially alert. Bridges may be washed out, culverts overtopped and boulders may be dislodged. • Don’t drive through high water. You may not know if it’s dangerously deep. • Watch for sunken and cracked roads and leaning utility poles, trees or fences. • Listen for unusual sounds that might indi- cate moving debris, such as trees cracking or boulders knocking together. A trickle flow may pre- cede a much larger event and slides can develop quickly. • If near a river or creek, be alert for sudden chang- es in water levels or if the 150 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE ENJOYING A NEW SHOWER IS EASIER THAN YOU THINK N IG W S DE E R N OWE SH water changes from clear to muddy. Such changes indicate activity upstream and you should be prepared to move quickly. • Be especially alert in ar- eas burned by the Septem- ber 2020 wildfire, where the threat of slides is increased. • Get away from a slide. More may be coming. Remember, slides vary widely in size and can move at slow or very high speed depending on slope angle, water content, and type of earth and debris flow.

LCPH tracing COVID cases at local bank According to Lane Coun- ty Public Health (LCPH), recent cases of the corona- virus confirmed in Flor- ence have been linked to a workplace outbreak at the Florence Branch of Oregon Pacific Bank. In a release from the bank Thursday, OPB con- firmed that four employ- ees have tested positive for COVID-19. The branch closed for a day last week in order to deep clean the facility, when the first positive test was re- ceived. However, the branch has been closed to walk-in busi- ness since mid-November. The origins of the four cases have not been de- termined and it remains unclear if the virus was spread among employees at the bank or was part of the community spread that LCPH has been tracking. The bank is urging any members of the community who may have had extend- ed contact with a branch employee between Jan. 4 and Jan. 14 to contact their local health provider imme- diately to assess the need for testing. According to OPB Pres- ident Ron Green, “The de- cision early on to close the branch for walk-in traffic has kept the risk of trans- mission between Bank em- ployees and the public ex- tremely low.” More information re- garding the bank’s state- ment can be found at opbc. com.
