🧰 What to do

Before

  • Know if you're in a flood zone and your evacuation route
  • Move valuables and chemicals to higher floors
  • Consider flood insurance — standard policies don't cover floods

During

  • Turn Around, Don't Drown — never drive through flooded roads
  • 6 inches of moving water can knock you down; 1 ft floats a car
  • Move to higher ground; avoid basements and underpasses

After

  • Avoid floodwater — it may hide debris, sewage, or live wires
  • Don't use wet electrical devices before inspection
  • Photograph damage; discard food touched by floodwater
