Preparing for Flood Damage in Horry and Georgetown Counties.
If you know you live in an area prone to flooding, or you live in a highlighted area on FEMA’s flood map, then it pays to be prepared early.
The water from a flood comes in fast and furiously, it can destroy your whole neighborhood within a matter of hours.
Here are a few tips to get your preparations started before it is too late:
- Get familiar with evacuation routes and procedures.
- Have a plan already in place for when a flood threatens your area.
- If you get surprised by the flood and can not evacuate, make sure you have a disaster kit available and up to date.
- Be aware of your flood insurance policy and keep extra copies and any phone numbers and policy numbers in a waterproof bag just in case.
