Southern California is not known for its storms and floods but when storms come, and floods your local neighborhood, be sure to follow these following guidelines:

• Tune in to your local news to learn whether the water supply is safe to drink.
• Avoid floodwaters; it may be contaminated by oil, gasoline, or sewage water.
• Avoid moving water.
• Return home only when authorities indicate it is safe.
• Avoid downed power lines, and report them to the power company.
• Stay away from damaged sewage systems – they are a serious health hazard
