Preparing for Flooding

If you live in a flood-risk area, you can familiarize yourself with flood warnings and alerts and sign up to them and get notified via phone, email or text alerts.

You can also check whether you live or work in a flood-risk area.

Floods and flash floods can happen quickly. If you see rising water do not wait for official warnings. Head for higher ground and stay away from floodwater.

Put safety first. Don’t take any chances. Act quickly if you see rising water.
