Before the Flood
Find out if your home is at risk for flood.
Consider installing "check valves" to prevent flood water from backing up into the drains of your home.
Talk to your insurance provider about your policy coving flood damage.
Flood Watch
Tune in radio, commercial radio, or television for information.
If possible, move furniture and valuables to higher floors in your home.
Bring outdoor belongings inside.
Fill bathtubs, sinks, and jugs with clean water.
Secure your home.
Be prepared to move to higher ground.
Be prepared to evacuate at a moment's notice.
Flood Warning
Get your disaster emergency kit.
Listen to the radio for the latest information.
Turn off utilities at the main switches.
Unplug electrical appliances.
Seek higher ground on foot immediately.
If advised to evacuate, do so immediately.
Stay away from floodwaters.
If you're outside, climb to higher ground and stay there.
If you're driving through rising waters, abandon your car immediately and move toward higher ground.
After Flood
Return home only when officials have declared the area safe.
Look outside for loose power lines, damaged gas lines, foundation cracks or other damage.
Approach entrances carefully.
See if porch roofs and overhangs have all their supports.
Watch out for wild animals.
If you smell natural or propane gas or hear a hissing noise, leave immediately and call the fire department.
If power lines are down outside your home, do not step in puddles or standing water.
Keep children and pets away from hazardous sites and floodwater.
Check with local authorities for assistance with disposal to avoid risk.
During cleanup, wear protective clothing, including rubber gloves and rubber boots.
Make sure your food and water are safe.
Do not use water that could be contaminated.
Contact your local or state public health department for specific recommendations for boiling or treating water in your area.
