PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Only when it is safe to do so, please report flooding or landslides
threatening roads or property to the National Weather Service
Greenville-Spartanburg by calling 1...800...2 6 7...8 1 0 1, by
posting on our Facebook page, or by posting on X using hashtag
NWSGSP. Your message should describe the specific location, address,
or intersection where impacts occurred and the depth of flooding
observed.
Turn around, dont drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles.
In hilly terrain there are hundreds of low water crossings which are
potentially dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded
roads. Find an alternate route.
Flooding is occurring or is imminent. It is important to know where
you are relative to streams, rivers, or creeks which can become
killers in heavy rains. Campers and hikers should avoid streams or
creeks.
