At Goodman Building Supply in Mill Valley, employees tell us they were busier than normal.<\/p>\n
Their biggest seller? Sandbags.<\/p>\n
“We pretty much sell out a lot of times during the storms,” said employee Max Abramov.<\/p>\n
Sausalito resident Michael Quijas tells us after the intense flooding from storms around the new year, many local residents aren’t taking chances.<\/p>\n
“Be aware that it’s coming and it’s a problem. You give us ample warning, which is great. Just be aware and take proper precautions,” said Quijas.<\/p>\n
Quijas says he works as a mold inspector.<\/p>\n
A problem that typically spikes during bouts of wet weather.<\/p>\n
But, he tells us, there are steps you can take to help protect your home.<\/p>\n
“If you know that you have a leak on the envelope of your house or the roof of your house, cover it up before the big rains hit. Make sure you protect it really well,” said Quijas.<\/p>\n
Further north in Sonoma County, flooding closed the intersection of highways 12 and 121.<\/p>\n
Fire officials urging people to stay extra alert when driving in the rain.<\/p>\n
“If there is any water on the roads, we ask the public to avoid them and not go through any coned off areas because those are usually coned off for flooding,” said Battalion Chief Jake Rosebrock.<\/p>\n
And with the series of storms expected to hit our region only beginning, a safety reminder for everyone to remember in the days ahead.<\/p>\n
“Look at your local weather and please slow down for the rain. Drive with your headlights on and just be cautious of any emergency equipment on the road.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The rain continued to fall in the North Bay Monday night.
