PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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

Recent burn areas are more prone to flooding, debris flows, and rock
falls. Plugged culverts, rocks and debris on roads, and water and
mud over roads are common during moderate to heavy rains. Increased
sediment and debris can lead to impacts in areas typically not prone
to flooding. Use extra caution when traveling in or below recent
burn areas. Impactful flooding and debris flows may be generated by
15 minutes or less of heavy rainfall.
