Landslide danger looms for some residents in the hills above Oakland and Berkeley after heavy rainfall over the past two weeks. Some homes already have seen significant damage from slides:
It’s a situation the longtime Berkeley resident never thought she’d be faced with when she and her husband woke up to a nightmare outside their side door.
A few hours later, the mud had made its way inside the house and as the dirt moved, they evacuated seven other houses located downhill. No injuries were reported. About 20 residents in homes that were evacuated are being assisted by the Red Cross. “We’ve lived here for 35 years and seen everything: mountain lines, skunks, possums, deer rats, I’ve got them all, and mud!!” said Oakland Hills resident Gary Plotner.“If you see a mudslide driveway, don’t try to get around it which I tried and that was a mistake,” said Kathy Eyre.
