"Roadways could become slick because right now, with the first rain, there's a lot of opportunity for, again, people just not being used to driving in the rain," said Fresno County Board Supervisor Nathan Magsig.
As the first major storm of the season rolls into the Central Valley, there's concern over wildfire burn scars in his district.
"Our public works department is going to be working diligently to make sure if we do have some limited mudslides, those get cleaned up quickly," said Magsig.
Weather experts said the Valley floor could catch up to an inch of rain over the next couple of days.
This anticipation of active weather has prompted the city of Clovis to offer a self-serve sandbag station to people in the area.
The possibility of heavy rain prompted PG&E to be ready at a moment's notice.
"Just making sure the extra transformers, the extra poles, the extra wire that we might need, that it's organized, it's ready to go, it's easily accessible," said PG&E Spokesperson, Jeff Smith.
The utility has its own team of meteorologists who've been tracking this upcoming storm.
The electric company uses AI technology to see which area would be most impacted by the rain.
"We're able to station crews there ahead of time so that they can respond and get customers restored should they experience a power outage," said Smith.
PG&E has also been checking in areas with high vegetation to prevent any possible fires.
