Be Flood Safe
3/31/2022 (Permalink)
If you are in an area that is under a flood warning, find shelter immediately. If you are told by authorities to evacuate do so right away.
Do not walk, swim, or drive through flood waters! Just six inches of moving water can knock you down, and one foot of moving water can sweep your vehicle away. Never drive around barricades. Local first responders use them to safely direct traffic out of flooded areas.
Make sure you have a way to listen to local alerting systems, like the NOAA Weather Radio, for current emergency information and instructions regarding flooding.
If you are sheltering indoors from flood waters, get to the highest level in the building. Only get on the roof if necessary and once there signal for help. Do not climb into a closed attic to avoid getting trapped by rising floodwater.
