Tips (courtesy of Snohomish County)

• Monitor local news and social media sites for emergency updates. Check the online road closures map here.

• If you have time before evacuating, turn off all utilities at the main power switch. Do not touch any electrical equipment unless it is in a dry area.

• Do not attempt to walk, wade or drive though flooded areas. Over 50% of flood-related deaths occur when drivers make the mistake of driving through floodwaters.

• If your car has stalled in a flooded area, abandon it and walk to safety in the direction you came from.

• If you cannot safely leave your house, bring your family pets and supplies to the second floor or roof of your house and call 911 for help.
