closed. Do not drive around barricades or through water of
unknown depth. Take the necessary actions to protect flood-prone
property.

calm. Swim in a direction following the shoreline. If tired,
float or tread water until out of the rip current. If unable to
escape, face the shore and call or wave for help.
