Whether the rains come gradually or not, there is a lingering concern as to how this downpour can create other devastating impacts to the dry and brittle earth. The Disaster Risk Management team is preparing for the possibility of landslides:
Daniel Mendez, NEMO coordinator
"It's a concern to us. We are doing our best to gather information on that. We are currently also speaking to the department of national resources in particular getting assistance from geologists to better understand the potential impacts. We know that there is a high potential of this happening. We just need to understand where and how severe it could be so it's something that we are definitely concerned with."
