In some areas over seven inches of rain fell in 48 hours and forecasters are predicting more. Mudslides have blocked roads and remain a dangerous problem.
Flood warnings are in effect and officials are still assessing the damage.
Bob Grist is the Emergency Services Director for the Josephine County Sheriff's Office. A lot of people were unfamiliar with the level of flooding. People were really looking for reassurance. Several Red Cross chapters are helping reassure people, in addition to assisting with relief efforts. These chapters include Douglas County, South Coast, Rogue Valley , and Oregon Trail.
