It's Flood Awareness Week so every day, we will release a tip or strategy you can use to ensure you and your property are protected.
Day Three
Stay safe. Intense or excessive rainfall can overtop canals and ditches, flooding streets. Remember to turn around, don't drown, as driving in flooded streets can stall your car and cause wave action to further flood structures along the road. Prepare ahead for bad weather and make a flood emergency plan today.
