What If Floodwater Rose While You Slept? 🌊

Описание: 2 A.M. You wake to cold water around your feet - the flood is already inside the house. Most people who drown indoors went downstairs. The 4 steps that keep you alive: freeze, go up, call 911, then window or roof - never the attic (one door, and it opens down into the water).

Six inches of moving water can knock a grown adult down, so never step into water you can't see the bottom of. Rescuers find you by your window light.
