Pacific City Home Flooded During Recent Rainstorm?
5/2/2023 (Permalink)
Heavy rain can cause flooding, street closures, and cause water intrusion into homes and businesses. Our local Yamhill and Tillamook Counties teams respond to storm damage emergencies 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Here are some tips from the National Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for things you can do during a flood watch or warning to stay safe:
- Gather emergency supplies, including non-perishable food and water. Store at least 1 gallon of water per day for each person and each pet. Store at least a 3-day supply.
- Listen to your local radio or television station for updates
- Have immunization records handy (or know the year of your last tetanus shot)
- Store immunization records in a waterproof container
- Bring in outdoor items (lawn furniture, grills, trash cans) or tie them down securely
- If evacuation appears necessary, turn off all utilities at the main power switch and close the main gas valve
- Leave areas subject to flooding such as low spots, canyons, washes, etc. (Remember: avoid driving through flooded areas and standing water.)
