anticipated across roads. Roads and driveways may be washed away in
places. If you encounter flood waters...climb to safety.

A Flash Flood Warning for a recent burn area means that flooding

or immediately downstream should take immediate precautions to
protect life. Quickly move away from the burn area only if it is

or the highest location in your home to stay out of the path of
fast-moving water and debris flows.

Be aware of your surroundings and do not drive on flooded roads.
