PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around...don`t drown when encountering flooded roads. Most
flood deaths occur in vehicles.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding. In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low
water crossings which are potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do
not attempt to cross flooded roads. Find an alternate route.
