Emergency Actions:

• Plan ahead as to what actions you will take in the event a flash flood occurs in your area.
  
• Remember - you may only have seconds to react when confronted with a flash flood.
  
• During watches be prepared to take immediate action.
  
• During warnings if the skies become threatening, take immediate action.
  
• Get out of areas subject to flooding and head for higher ground.
  
• Avoid already flooded and high velocity flow areas.
  
• Never drive through flooded roadways - the depth of floodwaters is not always obvious.
  
• If your vehicle stalls, leave it immediately and seek higher ground.
  
• Be extra cautious at night when it is harder to recognize flood dangers.
  
• Never allow children to play around high water, storm drains, viaducts or gullies.
