National Flood Safety Awareness Week, March 15-21, 2009
The Red Cross and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration remind us that this week is National Flood Safety Awareness Week. Borrowed from the NOAA website:
Most Americans ignore the risks of flooding, assuming they aren’t in a flood zone. The reality is, floods are America’s #1 natural disaster and can happen anytime, anywhere. In fact, 90% of all natural disasters in the U.S. involve flooding.
Educate yourself on the risks and impacts of flooding during National Flood Awareness Week so you can protect your family and your property. Click here for flood Safety Awareness information.
Take time to ask your insurance agent whether you should carry flood insurance. Better now than later!
There is much more preparedness information at Ready.gov!
