It’s important that you are prepared and ready in case you enter a flood disaster. Floods can be very dangerous, they move quickly and sometimes bring mud, trees, and other dangerous debris to your home.
Here are some helpful tips if you happen to enter a dangerous flood situation:
- Figure out if your home or workplace is in a predetermined flood plain
- Put together an emergency supply kit and inform all family members of where it is
- Develop a communication plan in case your family is not together during an evacuation
- Identify where you can go if you need to reach higher ground quickly and on foot
- Keep enough fuel in your car’s tank and have an emergency kit in your car as well
- Fill up your clean water containers
- Turn off gas, electricity and water and disconnect all appliances
You should always stay in communication with your family members if you are not together to make sure they are alright and have a safety plan.
