A Flash Flood Warning means that dangerous flooding is expected or already happening. Flash flooding can develop in hours or minutes, so take protective action now.  

  • If you are in a low-lying or flood prone area, move to higher ground immediately.  
  • Stay off bridges over fast-moving water, and away from storm drains, culverts, creeks and streams. 
  • Never walk, swim, or drive through flood waters or flooded roads. 
  • If you are trapped in a building, move to the highest floor and call 911. Go to the roof only if necessary. 
  • If your vehicle is trapped in rapidly moving water, stay inside. If water is rising inside the vehicle, move to the roof and signal for help.
