Ashland, Ore — With all that wet weather headed our way a lot of people are busy preparing tonight.
In Ashland, the community emergency response team is on standby should this weekend’s rainfall reach flood stage.
City crews have been helping residents fill sand bags in anticipation of heavy rains and high winds as memories of recent flooding still linger.
“If you in the past have had flooding in your home you should be aware of that, be mindful of that and know that’s potential in the future, if you’ve had that in the past,” said CERT Coordinator Terri Eubanks.
Sand for sandbags is currently free at the Ashland city yard on Mountain Avenue and B Street, but you’ll need to bring your own bags.
