- Find a life jacket, pool toy, foam cushion, or other flotation device.
- Run to high ground.
- Check shallow water.
If the water is less than 6 inches deep and not moving quickly, you should be able to walk quickly or run. - Move to the roof.
If you are are trapped by rising, fast-moving water and cannot get to higher ground, get on the roof of a two- or three-story house. - Do not attempt to swim across floodwaters.
Deep, quickly moving floodwaters will almost certainly overpower you and sweep you away.
