Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between a flood watch and a warning?
- A flood watch means flooding is possible. A flood warning means flooding is happening or about to. A flash flood warning is the most urgent and means move to higher ground now.
- Is it safe to drive through flood water?
- No. Most flood deaths happen in vehicles. As little as a foot of moving water can carry away a car, so turn around rather than drive through water of unknown depth.
