Heavy Rains/Flooding
Widespread torrential rains, often in excess of 10
inches, can produce destructive floods. This is a
major threat to low lying areas that are prone to
flooding. Rainfall is generally heaviest with slower
moving storms (less than 10 mph).
The heavy rains will cause flooding particularly in
low-lying areas, creeks, streams and road run-off
areas. Compounded with debris that clogs drainage,
roadways can remain flooded for many hours/days.
Never try to cross a flooded roadway. Flooded roads
are subject to erosion and damage. While it may look
perfectly safe, there could be hidden holes which will
trap your car and you.
