Disruptive Rain
- Flooding of roads and settlement (informal and formal).
- Danger to life (fast flowing streams)
- Possible damage to roads and bridges.
- Major disruption of traffic flow due to major roads and some mountain passes being flooded or closed.
-Disruption to essential services (water, electricity, schools).
If possible stay indoors and off the roads, avoid crossing rivers and swollen streams where water is above your ankles. If trapped in a vehicle during a flood, abandon it and climb to higher ground. Switch off electricity at the supply point of the building. In rural areas protect/relocate animals to a safe place on higher ground. Abandon your home immediately if evacuation is recommended, before access is cut off by flood water. NEVER drive on a road covered by water.
