The unusually wet weather in Western Oregon and Washington has officials warning about imminent landslide danger. Landslides have already closed roads and disrupted traffic around the region, causing damage. The Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industry says more rain storms will undoubtedly bring on more slides. We talk to the chief scientist with the state's geology department about the landslides that Oregon's already seen, and what else is on the way.
