Rainfall of 2 to 7 inches over the past 3 days has increased soil
moisture to high levels across western Washington. Heavy rainfall of
0.75 up to 4 inches is expected over the next 30 hours. This amount
of rain will put extra pressure on soil instability, leading to an
increased threat of landslides and debris flows, especially from
recent burned areas.

Over the last couple days at least one landslide has been reported
in King County. More landslides are possible.

Areas most susceptible to landslides debris flows under these
conditions are steep coastal bluffs, other steep hillsides or
road cuts, and recent burned areas. A diminishing threat of
landslides and debris flows will continue for several days after
the rain ends.
