⚠️🌧️ FLASH FLOODING POTENTIAL THIS WEEKEND — PLEASE STAY ALERT! 🌧️⚠️

With the current Hurricane Isaias bringing the potential for heavy rainfall and dangerous weather conditions, please take a few moments to prepare and stay informed. Flash flooding can happen quickly, even in areas that don’t typically flood. The state of South Carolina could see a risk of flash flooding.

🚨 A few important reminders:

Never drive through flooded roads. Turn Around, Don’t Drown!
Avoid walking or playing in floodwaters.
Keep an eye on local weather updates, watches, and warnings.
Have your phones charged and emergency supplies ready.
If you live in a flood-prone area, be prepared to move to higher ground if needed.

Please check on your family, friends, neighbors, and anyone who may need extra help preparing. Don’t wait until the water starts rising to take precautions.

Stay safe, stay weather-aware, and please share this post to help spread the word!
