What should I do?

Listen to a NOAA Weather Radio for critical information from the National Weather Service (NWS). Fill your car’s gas tank. Evacuate if advised by authorities. Be careful to avoid flooded roads and washed-out bridges. Turn off propane tanks and unplug small appliances. Check your disaster supplies and replace or restock as needed.

What do I do after?

Continue listening to a NOAA Weather Radio or the local news for the latest updates. Drive only if necessary and avoid flooded roads and washed-out bridges. Use the telephone only for emergency calls. Stay out of any building that has water around it. Keep away from loose or dangling power lines and report them immediately to the power company.
