NYC  Emergency Procedures Flash flood are floods that result
from rainwater that does not drain quickly.  Thus, the water
accumulates to flood conditions very quickly.  Sometimes in just
a few minutes.  Some flash floods can reach heights of several
feet and usually carry debris that can cause injury or death. 1.
Plan in advance what you should do if a flash flood does occur.
2. Determine what property may be in jeopardy.  Where would you
move your car to avoid damage? 3. Use extreme caution!  Never
attempt to cross standing water on foot or in a vehicle. 4.
Monitor the local weather news for flood warnings. 5. Check the
Emergency Update and School Closing Line for updates or
closings. The Vice President and Treasurer in conjunction with
the Facilities personnel will make decisions regarding control
and access to buildings/areas affected by floods, and issuing or
not issuing the “all clear” for safe building/area re-entry and
continued occupancy.
